Setting perspective based on another culture can provide great reminders.
This “Take a Breath” post is just such an example. Visual images of Hawaii alone can provide “be still” moments.
Can you appreciate this not rushing prayer approach?
- using our surroundings to deliberately prepare for prayer
- carefully engaging in prayer
- breathing life into prayers by departing the area and allowing time for the prayers to marinate?
WOW. Having done that just now for a dear friend, it was powerful! Thanks be to God.
Even if you don’t have Hawaiian surroundings to enjoy, what adaptations might make this approach work for you? Lighting a candle? Taking a walk? [In case you’re interested, here’s one person’s take on stillness practices]
Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit…
