Publisher's Synopsis
Gerry Pierse offers reflections that encourage readers to engage in daily meditation by surrendering all thought and repeating a prayer word, called a mantra. Such meditation is a discipline to be followed every day as we attempt to create a space for God in which we grasp nothing and want nothing. We do not pray to be successful; we pray to be faithful. Through this meditative experience we die to the self and are reborn into Christ. We do not need to seek Gods presence, because he is already within us; we must simply recognise it, for The Kingdom of God is within you. Conviction comes through the meditative experience. We must always come back to the prayer word, persistently but gently.
