The Inward Journey: Breathing Prayer

Peter Neilson1 August 06, 2012 0 0

Galatians 5:22

The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

​Imagine our lives marked by these qualities.

Imagine our church, our community, our nation and our world marked by these qualities.

Breathing in and out the love of God…

 

 

 

  • breathe in and thank God for his love for you
  • breathe out and give the love of God to others.

 

Try it: 

Breathe in deeply…..hold….thanking God that you are loved by God. 

Breathe out…. slowly….. and,  as you breathe, 

think of a person who needs to know the love of God today.

Now take each of the “fruit of the Spirit” one by one:

Breathe in and thank God for his love… joy… peace… patience… kindness… etc…..;

and breathe out praying for people who today need to experience that love… joy… peace…
