As an opportunity to focus our prayer and listening, using scripture, today we invite you to participate in what is sometimes called a Breath Prayer. A Breath Prayer is a way to meditate on a beloved Bible verse while slowly breathing in and out. It can be delightful and powerful!
Using your timer if you would like, we’ll be praying a breath prayer using Psalm 23:1. Here is how it goes:
Breathe in slowly and deeply as you whisper or think: “The Lord is my Shepherd…”
Hold your breath and your consciousness of God’s presence…
And then exhale as you whisper or think: “…I shall not want.”
Continue to repeat this pattern with each breath as you are filled with the Holy Spirit, the breath of God, and then release it. As you breathe and pray, listen for the voice of the Lord in the scripture you use.
