Centering Scripture: John 14:27
Centering Prayer
Read these words from Jesus’ last supper with his followers several times. It will only take 2-3 minutes to read it several times. Be aware that God will use a word or a word picture to hook your attention. When that happens, quit reading and meditate on what drew you into the words. In your journal, write the prayer that comes to you as you meditate on what captured your attention. Your prayer might take many forms: a heartfelt statement, poetry, or a sketch. What is important is that it represents the movement stirring your heart as you read the provocative Word of God.
