You could find yourself pondering long-range plans, or trips to faraway places. A feeling of longing may accompany these thoughts, as well as a sense that the future is filled with promise. You may have the vision of your future firmly in mind with no doubt of your reaching it, but you could feel longing because you may not be sure what steps to take to get there. Such a desire is what will keep you moving toward your dreams, like a carrot dangling in front of a horse. These are three important elements of making your dreams reality, and you are certainly on the right track with feelings such as these. By making long-range plans, and infusing them with your desire and hope, you have all the pieces of the puzzle in your hands.

You are in your car driving home. Thoughts wander to the game you want to see
or meal you want to eat, when suddenly a sound unlike any you’ve ever heard
fills the air. The sound is high above you. A trumpet? A choir? A choir of
trumpets?
You don’t know, but you want to know.
So you pull over, get out of your car, and look up. As you do, you see you
aren’t the only curious one. The roadside has become a parking lot. Car doors
are open, and people are staring at the sky. Shoppers are racing out of the
grocery store. The Little League baseball game across the street has come to
a halt. Players and parents are searching the clouds. And what they see, and
what you see, has never before been seen.

Centering Prayer does not require constant use of a mantra or consciousness of breathing or any effort of exerted attention. Letting go of all our efforts, we simply sit with the intention of surrendering to God. We wait with openness, turning to God through the use of our prayer word that expresses our readiness to receive the love of God.
.
AS YOU BEGIN TO PRAY, what is the name of God you commonly choose? The name you use to address God can be a word that helps you stay in an open attitude of silent prayer. You approach and address God and then you go no further; you simply commune with God in a loving relationship for the Centering Prayer period. Later you listen for God’s word and make your verbal prayers. For now, you enter silent communion.
