I posted a request for prayer about 1 month ago for a family member (Penny) who was facing cancer surgery for the 2nd time. She has had the surgery and the pathology came back completely negative. Thank you to any amd all who prayed for Penny. God has heard our prayers.

Breath Prayer

Are you feeling at the mercy of ‘life’ these days? Tossed by the waves, not sure which way is up? Why not take a few minutes to centre yourself and re-align with God’s steadying presence in the waves through the practice of Breath Prayer.

Tuesday

Breath Prayer

Today we invite you to join Jesus in weeping at the graveside of so many broken things in this world, through the practice of breath prayer.

Where are you hurting? Where is the world hurting? How might Jesus help you learn how to breathe through those tears with healing and hope?

Wednesday

Breath Prayer

When you want to describe the characteristics of God, what is the first thing that comes to mind? When you talk about the presence of God in your life, what feelings surface? How high up on your list is Prince of Peace? Is peace an attribute you feel often in your daily life?

Thursday

Breath Prayer

Do you hold onto shame and guilt when it comes to spending time with God? Do you find it daunting to “do it” right? Is your inner critic harsh when it comes to comparison?

Today, as you engage in this breath prayer, allow yourself to be present with your feelings and also give yourself grace. Allow your body and mind to settle and simply “be”.

Friday

Breath Prayer

Do you find it easy to sit in the presence of the Holy Spirit? Does the silence become increasingly loud or does it feel natural to be still?

Wherever you find yourself on the spectrum today we want to invite you to seek the presence of the Holy Spirit today and see what stirs up in you.

Close your eyes right now, and place your hand on your chest overtop of your heart for a minute. Can you feel it beating there? Proof that you’re alive. Proof that God loved the idea of you so much that he actually breathed you into existence.
