Meditation—by Ivor and Anne-Marie Botha
May 21, 2023
Sermon summary:
Meditation is mentioned 58 times in the Bible. Psalm 19:14 How is your meditation—is it pleasing in the sight of the Lord?
Do you have time for God and make space for him in your life by stopping, listening, and looking for him?
Psalm 46:10 Be still and know that I am God. Take time from your busy schedule; stop the noise, and focus on God. Get away to a place where it is quiet and still. Set your mind on things above. What is consuming your mind? Focus on the spiritual rather than the negative. Be receptive to God's prompting.

In every major conflict, whether political, personal, or spiritual, there is almost always a sliver of validity on both sides. Grievances are real. Injustices are felt. Leaders on the “wrong” side can even articulate legitimate frustrations.
Worship nourishes the soul, centres us on Christ's sacrifice, and renews our identity in God through gratitude, surrender, and continuous remembrance.
