TEACH YOUR CHILDREN TO BE IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD
|
Are you a parent looking for information about Christian meditation with children? Do you meditate
and do you feel the need to teach your child how to meditate? Is your child asking you questions
about God, Jesus, prayer? Does he like to imitate you when you meditate? If you want to have the
privilege to start your child in a path of deep spirituality, then you have found the right website.
“Children are born contemplatives and so contemplation is not only the goal of the Christian life but
in a sense its starting point too,” Fr Laurence Freeman, a Benedictine monk and the Director of The
World Community for Christian Meditation, has written in a foreword to the Like A Child series of
books - a program for teaching Christian meditation to children in primary schools.
Children are saying that they do not want merely to learn about Jesus and God in their religion
lessons: they wanted to experience God in their heart. Christian meditation provides your child
with an opportunity to start a journey of silence and stillness where he will experience the
presence of Jesus within.
