A Reflection by Becky Eldredge
Thankfully, God is not finished with us yet.
God continues to work within us and through us. We are given many tools on our spiritual journey that provide avenues for God’s continual transformation within us. Baptism and Confirmation are key points in our transformation; however, the gift of the Eucharist sustains and nourishes us weekly.
What else helps us experience newness of life on our spiritual journey? Which prayer methods invigorate our faith life and wake us up to the newness of life in front of us?
For me, prayer methods such as the Examen or Lectio Divina awaken new ways that God is transforming and inviting me to participate in new life.
