Centering Prayer
As we begin a new school week at end of term, it's easy for us to enter into Monday feeling overwhelmed by the demands of the week. That feeling calls us to simplify.
How
? Focus on one
phrase/characteristic/name of God (ex.
Prince of Peace, Lover, Rock, Comforter, Father, God with Us, Lord of
History, Hope of the Nations, Holy One, Shepherd, Light of Life) that
either expresses
your desire for God or brings into focus a characteristic of God that
will bless you this week. Let that word or phrase linger within you and
open yourself up to God’s
presence through that word.
Write
the word or phrase somewhere (on a note on your desk, or maybe even on
the palm of your hand?) so that you'll see it repeatedly throughout the
day.
