| MEDITATION WITH CHILDREN |
| FROM THE HEART |
- Children have a yearning to experience God within them, but often they
do not have the words to voice these desires.
During the school day, I spent my time listening to what the children
were saying to me and I realised that they didn´t want merely to learn
about Jesus and God in their religion lessons: they wanted to
experience God in their heart. I believe that Christian meditation
provides children with an opportunity to undertake a journey of silence
and stillness where they experience the presence of Jesus within.
The natural spiritual awareness of the children convinced me that they
had the ability, even a longing, to meditate....Here are some comments
from a few students:
- I felt like I was in Jesus’ house.(yr.1)
I felt God inside my heart (yr. 2)
It is good to meditate every day (yr.3)
When we meditate we are with God (yr 5)
When I meditate I become calm and still (yr.7).
