I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination.

Matthew 10:29-31 NIV

29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

Jesus taught that the Psalms of the Bible were directly inspired by God’s Spirit…

Matthew 22:41-44 NIV

41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them,

42 “What do you think about the Messiah? Whose son is he?” “The son of David,” they replied.

43 He said to them, “How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him ‘Lord’? For he says,

44 “‘The Lord said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.”’ (quoting Ps 110:1)

So this is a truth directly inspired by God’s Spirit…

Psalm 139:16-18 NIV

16 Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, God! How vast is the sum of them!

18 Were I to count them, they would outnumber the grains of sand
