WE MEDITATE TO RECEIVE THE COMFORT OF HIS PRESENCE

WE WILL NOT FEAR, BECAUSE GOD IS OUR REFUGE

With each meditation, there must be this surrender of ourselves to the Spirit within, together with a realization that God’s grace is our sufficiency and that we are in meditation for the express purpose of receiving the comfort of His Presence. The person who is one with God is merely the transparency through which God is living His life. His body is the temple of God, and his mind is the instrument of God, the mind which was also in Christ Jesus. That mind can be attained only in silence, not with words or with thoughts, although words and thoughts may be used as a preliminary step which we know as meditation, which plays a vitally important part in the development of our spiritual life. It is the meditation that makes teaching come alive because meditation is the connecting link between our outer life and our inner self.
