Welcome to this short meditation.
I pray that it helps you find some peace in today.
Start by taking a slow breath in and let your exhale fall out naturally.
Place your hand over your heart.
Notice the warmth,
The steady beat,
And the life that God has breathed into you.
You were made for safe,
Secure love,
Like the love that our God has given us.
Now I want you to breathe in for four seconds,
Hold for one,
And exhale for five.
I want you to imagine your breath softening the parts that panic when love feels uncertain.
First John 418 tells us,
Perfect love casts out fear.
Let those words from our God settle into a space that you may feel anxious.
Now I want you to picture Jesus sitting beside you,
Close,
Calm,
And unhurried.
He isn't going anywhere.
He looks at you with a steady love that doesn't shift when you feel insecure or overwhelmed.
He's always there.
Now let yourself hear this as if he's speaking it to you directly.
Hebrews 13 5,
I will never leave you nor forsake you.
Let that promise be the anchor your fear has been searching for.
Take one more slow breath in,
And as you exhale,
Let your body absorb this truth.
You are chosen.
We're safe in God's love.
You don't have to cling to be kept.
Thank you for listening.
I hope you have an amazing rest of your day.
