- I started meditation about four or five years ago after attending Father
Laurence's workshop. I meditated only once a day. It was only in 2007
when I started meditating twice a day that I found it has a profound
effect on me. The change is I am becoming more patient and a better
Christian. This change came slowly. I am still experiencing this
slow change in me. Meditation calms me down and made me realised
that God is inside me and at the same time there also exists my human
sinful nature. Before I meditate I pray that in the stillness of silence the
image of God in me will grow and grow and eventually shrink my sinful
human inclinations.
Besides meditation I attend Bible study and say my ordinary verbal
prayers to strengthen my faith. It is a long journey. On certain days my
meditation is of no help as my mind keeps on wandering. I know I need
to persevere as the devil keeps on trying to pull me in the opposite
direction. The journey is long but God is always there to help us if we
turn to Him.
