MEDITATION

This section presents a way to achieve silence and stillness – the path of meditation, or prayer of the heart. In the silence, stillness, and simplicity of meditation, one begins to experience the inner quietness of the heart. The outcomes of regular meditation over a period of time include greater serenity, peace, and joy. This section specifically touches on the discipline and simplicity of meditation, as well as the practice of repeating Scripture in the silence of the heart.
