Meditation with John 20 PEACE

In this episode I invite you to enter one of my favourite gospel stories in your imagination.
John 20:19-23 finds the disciples locked in fear in the upper room, unsure of what has happened, what will happen, or how they are to go on.
There is much anxiety in the air this week, so I invite you to find your way into that room with the disciples,
to ponder who or what it is you have figuratively locked the doors against in your fear,
to experience the presence of Christ
to hear Christ speak PEACE
and to receive the breath of Christ being breathed upon you.
Receive the Holy Spirit.
Your breath mingles with the breath of God.
Peace.
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.

Like you, Lissy, this is one of my favourites too. And imaginative meditation/prayer is so good to do with it, isn’t it as we can see ourselves there in the room, terrified to what is to befall us. And then Jesus walks thru the door/wall and speaks peace & breathes the Holy Spirit over us all.
Thank you. Beautiful meditation.
