ADVENT OFFERING Seven Mansions of the Interior Castle with Susan Komis Camp Beckwith Fairhope, AL

We identify with the Christian contemplative heritage in which Centering Prayer is rooted. We recognize this heritage as the common ground for Christian unity. Theological principle #10
So that they may all be one; just as You, Father, are in me and I in you, may they also be one in us.
John 17: 21

CONSIDERATION
CONWF sends gratitude to Joe & Christy for their leadership at the recent workshop "Introduction to Centering Prayer as the 11th Step".

"Receive the Holy Spirit.'' (John 20:22) is the divine breathe that contains the whole of God and all that exists.
"There is no effort needed to receive the divine breath. Breathing is inherent to human nature on both the physical and spiritual levels. It constantly happens. Our best effort is no effort: just to receive intentionally -- that is, with total consent -- the divine communication.
"The will is the mouth of the soul. The Spirit is the divine breath. Letting go of every form of self-identity or reflection is the nature of pure consciousness: to surrender to God just as we are and to surrender to God just as God is." |
