I love reading the works of Christian Mystics both modern and classic.  For Lent this year I have decided to post a daily quote which I plan on using to focus my prayers and meditation.  I offer it to the virtual public just in case anyone else might find it a useful spiritual practice as we head into the Spring.

Lent 2014 Days 1 & 2:

Faith is
nothing else but
a right understanding
of our being -
trusting
and allowing things to be;

A right understanding 
that we are in God
and God
whom we do not see
is in us.

Julian of Norwich
from Meditations with Julian of Norwich by Brendan Doyle


A suggestion for you prayer practice:

Breathing in I know I am in God.
Breathing out I know God is in me.

Breathing in.....I am in God.
Breathing out.....God is in me.

(Sit quietly for 10 minutes following your breath and internally repeating these words on the inhalation and exhalation)
