Contemplation: A Long, Loving Look at Reality
Contemplation is:
Resting in God
A loving gaze upon God
Knowing beyond Knowing
Rapt attention to God
- Thelma Hall
The call to contemplation is for all people!
It is for all who desire more depth, meaning, presence, and union with the Divine. God is inviting all into a place that is grounded and utterly real.
Contemplative prayer is not so much a way to find God as a way of resting in him whom we have found, who loves us, who is near us, who comes to us to draw us to himself
— Thomas Merton
