Someone recently shared with me an awesome app – it’s called Pray as you go and it’s free. You can get it on your iPhone, ipad and I believe any other “smart” device. As I was navigating through the app, I came upon a section called Imaginative Contemplation Exercises. I was so excited to see it because I remembered the first time I did an exercise like that – it was in my old parish during a women’s retreat – the nun in charge asked us to close our eyes and imagine being in the story she was about to read. It was the Road to Emmaus – and as I sat with my eyes closed, listening to the story, imagining myself in the story, the tears began to fall down my face because I truly felt the presence of Christ! What an experience.
So if you are interested in growing closer to God and feeling the presence of Christ, I would definitely recommend that you download this app onto your mobile device. There are many more resources attached to the app as well. Take a look. If you do not have a mobile device or do not wish to download the app, you can access the website here. I would recommend taking a look at the website even if you do download the app because there are so many more resources that will help you go deeper in your relationship with God. If you would like to access the contemplation exercises directly from the website click here.
I’m so excited to be sharing this information with you. If you have a chance to check it out, let me know what you think!
