Okie dokie. Get out your comfortable bamboo mat and get in a cross-legged sitting position on the floor in your favorite room. And welcome to Meditation for Beginners. It’s a class for kids from 8 to 80. And after this first lesson, if you’re not ecstatic about how much better you feel, I’ll triple your money back. Are you ready? Great!
Meditation for Beginners: Lesson one.
First step? Forget the bamboo mat and that silly, uncomfortable sitting position on the floor. For cryin’ out loud, make yourself comfortable. Brew up your favorite wake-up beverage. Grab your physical OR digital Bible. And check out what Paul said you should meditate on, in Philippians 4:8-9. And he said it’s how you get the “peace of God.”
Wow. That seems like a mighty nice thing to get from some focused meditation. Right?
There are lots of people who’ll get up in front of an audience and talk about how important focus is. And it is. Because you can achieve your dreams and goals with focus. But that kind of focus is better for temporary things than it is for a lasting, loving relationship with your Creator. Yeah, it’s just meditation for beginners.
And Paul says to meditate on whatever things are true, noble, just, pure, lovely, of good report, having any virtue, and anything praiseworthy. Because those are forever things. You can’t see ‘em right now. But one day you WILL.
Here’s how and why…
Jesus is the reason you can love.
He’s the only reason that you’re here.
If it weren’t for Jesus and His love,
All the universe would disappear.
Jesus is the one way you can live
For a while and then forever, too.
So, start smiling and get up and show
How the fullness of God lives in you.
