Short Reflection for the 20th Sunday of the Ordinary Time (B)
Readings: Proverbs 9: 1-6; Ephesians 5: 15-20; John 6 51-58
Selected Text: “I am the living bread that came down from heaven; whoever eats this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh for the life of the world." (John 6: 51)
Meditation: We are invited to partake of the living bread – Jesus Christ, the Lord. And by partaking of the living bread, we become truly ALIVE in Jesus and we become the living bread for others. We are reminded, too, “whoever eats my flesh and drinks his blood remains in me and I in him”. www.badaliyya.blogspot.com
DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD...
Dhikr is an Arabic word for remembrance. In the “tariqa” (the way) movement, dhikr developed into a form of prayer… It is a prayer of the heart… following three simple steps:
1. Write in one’s heart a certain passage of the Holy Writ…
2. Make the same passage ever present in one’s lips.
3. Then wait for God’s disclosure on the meaning of the passage…that interprets one’s life NOW…!
It takes a week of remembering (dhikr)…or even more days to relish the beauty of this method…
