Meditation

My mom just bought me an excellent meditation/devotional book called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young, which shares her experiences in the Presence of God. There is a devotion for every day of the year, spoken to readers from the point of view of Jesus. Young hopes that readers will refresh themselves in the peace of Jesus's presence. This book is great for both new believers and people who need help utilizing their quiet times. For me, this book has been a great way to begin my days and has kept me in constant communication with our Creator. I was inspired to start listening to God during prayer times after reading a 1998 interview of Mother Teresa by Dan Rather in a copy of a devotional by Max Lucado, where Rather asks her..

Rather: What do you say to God when you pray?
Mother Teresa: I listen.
Rather: Well, what does he say?
Mother Teresa: He listens.
