Christian meditation, very simply,

is the ability to hear God’s voice and obey his word. It is that

simple. I wish I could make it more

complicated for those who like things difficult.

It involves no hidden mysteries, no secret mantras, no mental

gymnastics, no esoteric flights into the

cosmic consciousness. The truth of the matter is that the great

God of the universe, the Creator of all things desires our

fellowship.
