Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another (1 John 4:11; NIV).
Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them (Romans 12.9; NLT).
Love your neighbour as yourself (James 2:8; NLT).
Love your enemies! Do good to them (Luke 6:35; NLT).
Let love be your highest goal! (1 Corinthians 14:1; NLT).
If I didn’t love others, I would be nothing (1 Corinthians 13:2; NLT).
***********************************
Lord,
As I sit still
In contemplation,
May I absorb
Your love
For all the world.
Then,
As I go out
To face the morning,
May I radiate
Your love
To all I meet.
Just sitting here thinking about the process of absorbing all that love and how it would feel …

Do let me know how you get on! If you need any help with your meditation, I’m an old hand. I always start with 10 slow breaths, then a physical relaxation for the whole body to a familiar set pattern, then I enter contemplation using my own favourite words. I’m happy to share or discuss any details about what might be helpful, or what either of us experiences. Just say the word, but no pressure XXXX
