Questions
Are you the type of person who likes to read all the directions, or do you like to “wing it”?
When you are stressed or fearful, what patterns do you most often turn to? (Avoidance, Worry, Isolation, Self-Medication, something else?) What does that often look like for you?
What direction are you sensing from God right now in your life? Even if you don’t know the destination, what prompting or direction are you feeling from him?
Prayer
THE WELCOMING PRAYER, BY FATHER THOMAS KEATING
Welcome, welcome, welcome.
I welcome everything that comes to me today
because I know it’s for my healing.
I welcome all thoughts, feelings, emotions, persons,
situations, and conditions.
I let go of my desire for power and control.
I let go of my desire for affection, esteem,
approval and pleasure.
I let go of my desire for survival and security.
I let go of my desire to change any situation,
condition, person or myself.
I open to the love and presence of God and
God’s action within. Amen.
