The Daily Still Podcast - Guided Christian Meditations and Devotions

Today we continue our Journey through Lent with a focus on service. We consider the questions: Who do I find difficult to love or serve? What is one way I can overcome indifference by serving someone today?
Scripture references: 1 Peter 4:10 and Matthew 25:35-40
Daily Still Meditations are written and hosted by Cindy L. Helton with podcast production by SoundGood Media.

Today we focus on Psalm 42 and the practice of Lament. Pause, breathe, and consider the question: Where is my heart discouraged?

During this season of Lent, you're invited to join The Daily Still Podcast each Monday for a Journey of Returning to God through meditation and personal reflection. We will offer six meditations that correspond with the six weeks of Lent.
 

A great place to start this journey, is to ask yourself:
Where do I feel distant from God?

What practices will deepen the love of God in me?
 

Scripture Reference: "'And yet even now,' says the Lord, 'return to me with all your heart."' - Joel 2:12-13 NLT

Merry Christmas from The Daily Still! Today's meditation helps prepare our hearts in anticipation of Christ's birth. The stories and scriptures may be familiar, but there is always more to ponder. This meditation focuses on Mary's story and her faithful "yes" to the mystery of God. As you listen, consider with fresh insight the courage of Mary. Consider the fear she must have experienced, the vulnerability and disbelief. Ponder her consent and surrender in saying "yes" to the mystery of the Incarnation. And consider, "Where are you being invited to say 'Yes' to divine appointments in your life?" 
 
Find a quiet space, take several deep breaths, perhaps light an advent candle, and become aware of God with you. 
 
Scripture references are taken from The Gospel of Luke, Chapter 1 NIV

The Hope of The World - Resurrection Sunday
"He is risen! He is risen indeed!"
The angel said to the women, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said." - Matthew 28:5-6
On Easter Sunday, all sorrow of holy week is turned to joy and praise.
H
oly Week reveals contrasts: the crucifixion and the resurrection, death and life, sin and salvation, sorrow and hope.
Pause for a few moments and breathe in this holy exchange….
Breath in salvation/Exhale sin
Breathe in freedom/Exhale bondage
Breathe in hope/Exhale sorrow
Breathe in faith/Exhale doubt
Breathe in LIFE
