Christian Meditation

Christian meditation - the way I practice it - involves reflecting on a thought (usually from the Bible) that resonates with me. I try to fill my mind with its meaning.

Whenever I come across something that strikes me powerfully when I am reading, I write it down so that, from time to time, I can re-read it, meditating on what it means.

Here is one I wrote down sometime this past year. It comes from the Psalms (my favorite book of the Bible), Psalm 27, verse 14. I may have been feeling insecure or unsure of what to do when I wrote it down, because its words are encouraging...

Wait on the Lord
Be of good courage

And He shall strengthen your heart
Wait, I say, on the Lord.
