Transcript

Hello,

My dear friends.

For today and tomorrow's meditations,

We are going to focus on a specific spiritual fruit of faithfulness.

To begin,

I invite you to be still.

Locate your mind,

Relax your body,

And close your eyes if it is safe to do so.

Find a position you can remain in comfortably for the duration of this meditation.

And be still.

Take a long,

Slow,

Deep breath in,

And slowly let it out.

And again,

And with each breath in,

Allow yourself to relax a little bit more.

Feel your worries,

Tensions,

And judgments drift away with each exhalation.

Relaxation in,

And tension out.

Calm in,

And worries out.

Release in,

And judgments out.

Repeat this exercise until you are without worry,

Tension,

Or judgment.

If you need more time,

Feel free to pause this meditation and resume when ready.

Time will still be right here for you when you come back.

And now that you are without any negative judgment,

You are free.

All that remains is a spirit of peace and loving kindness.

And now,

Let us meditate upon some words from scripture.

Your mercies are new every morning.

Great is your faithfulness.

Great is your faithfulness.

Fresh as the morning,

Sure as the sunrise,

Each day is a clean slate,

A chance to start again.

Yahweh,

Your mercies are new every morning.

Your mercies are new every morning.

Great is your faithfulness.

Your faithfulness is so great.

Your faithfulness is fresh as the morning.

Your faithfulness is sure as the sunrise.

Your faithfulness brings a clean slate,

A clean slate with each new day.

Each new day is a clean slate.

A chance to start again.

Your mercies are new every morning.

Your faithfulness is fresh as the morning and sure as the sunrise.

Each new day is a clean slate.

Every morning I am reborn.

Every morning we are reborn.

Yahweh,

Your mercies are new every morning.

Thank you for meditating with me today my dear friends.

May grace and peace,

Light and love be with you.

Nice meter and voice. Very relaxing.

I really like the style you use of repeating the scripture enough that I can remember to repeat it later.
