129. The Living Water Prayer Meditation

Speaker: 00:00:09

Whoever you are, wherever you are,

take a slow breath into your belly

2

: 00:00:21

and a gentle breath out

3

: 00:00:28

Let your body soften

4

: 00:00:35

Now imagine yourself beside the sea.

5

: 00:00:41

The surface is calm.

6

: 00:00:46

waves lap lightly against the shore.

7

: 00:00:55

The air is quiet

8

: 00:01:07

Then you hear his voice.

9

: 00:01:11

Jesus is beside you.

10

: 00:01:15

He says, " Whoever drinks the water

I give them will never thirst."

11

: 00:01:25

He offers you his living water, water

that restores, heals, and gives life

12

: 00:01:37

As you breathe, imagine his cool, clear

water flowing gently into your soul.

13

: 00:01:47

Let it wash over your mind.

14

: 00:01:50

Let it reach the hidden

places in your heart.

15

: 00:01:55

Jesus is the water in the desert,

16

: 00:02:00

the rain after drought,

17

: 00:02:04

the river that doesn't run dry.

18

: 00:02:10

Focus on his life-giving water

19

: 00:02:18

Feel your tired, worn out soul begin

to hydrate with overflowing gratitude

20

: 00:02:30

As you breathe in,

focus on this gratitude.

21

: 00:02:37

As you breathe out, speak your

gratitude aloud as if voicing a prayer

22

: 00:02:48

Keep it simple.

23

: 00:02:51

Perhaps a single word

24

: 00:03:01

Practice now as you keep breathing

25

: 00:03:07

Feel your gratitude on the inhale

26

: 00:03:14

Speak your gratitude on the exhale

27

: 00:03:48

Breathe in with gratitude.

28

: 00:03:54

Breathe out with gratitude

29

: 00:04:22

Take one final breath in

30

: 00:04:26

and slowly release

31

: 00:04:32

Now take a moment and notice

how your spirit has changed.

32

: 00:04:39

Is it lighter, brighter,

33

: 00:04:45

fuller?

34

: 00:04:54

Remember, when life gets heavy

or your spirit feels depleted,

35

: 00:05:03

Christ can brighten your soul

through gratitude And breathe in

36

: 00:05:09

gratitude and breathe out gratitude
