April 25, 2025Centering Prayer: 15 in the Afternoon
Let's pause together to rest and breathe in the quiet with God for 15 minutes. Remember that this practice is for your whole self. As Thomas Keating wrote, "Contemplative prayer is not so much the absence of thoughts as detachment from them. It is the opening of mind, body and emotions—our whole being—to God, the Ultimate Mystery, beyond words, thoughts and emotions."
