0:01Let's get started by taking a moment just to be thankful for all the blessings in life.
0:16And when you're ready, let your eyes close, like the sun sets.
0:30Take a moment to consider this verse and prayer.
0:37"There is no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God's passionate love." Again, "There is no power that could ever be found
0:59in the universe that can distance us from God's passionate love." Now, take a moment to be grateful for this opportunity to relax.
1:31Notice how good it feels just to be here in this moment.
1:57Take a few nice, big, deep breaths in.
2:19Allow your body and mind to relax.
2:42Nothing else matters right now.
2:46There is nowhere to go, there's nothing to do.
2:54Here you are.
3:18Allow your body to relax and feel the calm of God's presence.
3:58The thoughts may take you away, and that's okay.
4:05Don't resist the thoughts.
4:08Don't force them back.
4:11Be friendly with your thoughts.
4:17When it feels natural, come back to the feeling of relaxation in the body.
4:54Now, without changing the breath, notice the quiet sound of your breathing.
5:30In through the nose and out through the mouth.
5:53Just watching the breath.
6:06Watching the rise and the fall of the chest.
6:34Listening to the sounds of your breath.
7:03Notice your feelings and emotions.
7:14Just taking note of them and then coming back to the feeling of the breath.
8:00And now bringing your attention to the heart.
8:16Let your awareness settle onto the heartbeat.
8:43Allow your awareness to fall and move inward.
8:53Finding that place where you feel loved.
9:21Feel that sense of natural peace that can only be found in God's presence.
9:43Remember, when you come near to God, He will come near to you.
10:05Take this verse with you, "There is no power that could ever be found in the universe that can distance us from God's passionate love." God, I know you're always
10:33with me.
10:36Thank you for all of your blessings.
10:40Help me to relax and let go in your presence.
10:48I trust your plan for my life.
