Centering Prayer - Mountain on the Road
Centering prayer is a very simple way of prayer, which can be used by anyone who wants to be with God, to experience His love and presence. It is a prayer of longing that leads into a prayer of presence.
Some helpful suggestions for centering prayer:
- Sit realxed and quiet; gently close your eyes
- Be in faith and love to God who dwells in the center of your being
- Take up a love word or image of God that is powerful to you and let it be gently present, supporting your being to God in faith-filled love
- Whenever you become aware of anything else, simply gently return to the Lord with the use of your prayer word
You also are invited to view this online meditation video with Fr. Dan Riley as he leads you into prayer by using the phrase "Be still and know that I am God."
