Imaginative Contemplation – Great Cloud of Witnesses

I mean I never imagined that a guided meditation on the great line of Jesus’ ancestors was plausible, but here we are. It has been given to me by spark of inspiration, and I pass it on to you. My sincere apologies for the sure mispronunciations scattered throughout.

I hope, however, that you won’t be distracted by the names which may sound unusual to English-speaking ears. Instead I invite you to be present in your imagination to each of these souls, and to ponder on the gifts, the legacy, the riches of love, perspective, humour, faith, experience, wisdom, intellect, leadership, creativity and intimacy with God, that this great line of souls bestows on Yeshua, Jesus.

We continue our exploration of the question “Who, then, is this?” as we explore the opening chapters of Lukes gospel. This is a meditation based around Luke 3:21-38.

Contemplative at Home offers guided meditative prayer – space to slow down and listen to the truth that is being born out of God’s love for you today – drawing on Ignatian spirituality and at times, Lectio Divina.

  1. Hi Lissy. Would you consider adding more centering prayer ? I love the ones you have now and look forward to more ! Thank you

  2. Hi Jill! Thanks so much for your encouraging feedback! I will definitely keep this in mind. At the moment I’m planning to stay with the imaginative contemplations through lent and easter. So pleased to know the centering prayer is helpful and I will indeed have a think about circling back there again. Warmly,
    Lissy

I'd love to hear from you!
