“Opening My Heart to the Healing Touch of God”

I have uploaded a meditation on prayer as the encounter with God’s loving gaze and his healing touch, and the way that this encounter alone can bring forth authentic sanctity and true liberation in our hearts, opening up within us the joy and playfulness of a child. It is the first of two meditations that I’ll be adding from my most recent book: Looking into His Loving Gaze: On the Beauty of Prayer. 

This is a book that I have a deep desire to share, since in it I express those things that I would most like others to hear…or rather, I try to create a “space” in which God can speak and open up in human hearts the vulnerable receptivity to experience his gaze of perfect love, his healing and consoling embrace. There is a conviction within me that God has entrusted this message to me, this ministry which becomes incarnate in the words of this book, and I feel a deep responsibility to share it with my brothers and sisters. If you find yourself in agreement with what I have expressed in these two meditations, I would be greatly appreciative if you would help to spread this book to others. I would indeed be glad to send you copies at a very low price, if this is something you feel called to help me in.

I’ll be posting the second meditation in the next couple days, which is the one I most desire to share. But here is the link for the first. (You may want to read it in sections, which are provided in the text, since there is a lot of material to think about.)
