This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God’s presence. I’m Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination. 

Acts 17:25 NIV

“He himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else.”

Acts 17:28 NIV

“For in him we live and move and have our being.”

Colossians 1:16-17 NIV

“...All things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.”

The Jesus Prayer

“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.”

The earliest attested references to a form of the Jesus Prayer appear in a letter traditionally attributed to John Chrysostom (AD 407). In a “Letter to an Abbot,” John Chrysostom makes mention of using "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy" (and also the plural variant "…have mercy on us") as a form of unceasing prayer.
