Christian Meditation

Earlier we looked at the importance of meditation during the season of Lent. In this second piece on meditation, Fr. Eugene McCaffrey explores the practicalities of meditation and how it can bring people back to a spiritual path.
In this interview Miriam Gormally evokes from Fr.Eugene the idea that christian meditation can be a way back, a doorway into the practice of religious worship.
The idea of the Great St.Teresa that prayer is recollection, a way of being present to God in hushed and attentive silence is indeed an attractive thought, if just even for today.
As I listen to Father Eugene, my heart is raised. I too find meditation as a source of being centred in the knowledge that I am loved beyond measure. May we enjoy and share the great secret!
