Like other forms of meditation, Christian meditation starts with mindfulness. Unlike them, it is essentially a dialogue with the "Love that moves the sun and the other stars" (Dante), and leads to a deeper friendship with Jesus Christ. In these recordings, Opus Dei priests reflect and pray out loud to stir hearts to this dialogue. A new meditation is released each week.

    Lent Retreat Meditation 7/7: Beginning Again and Again

    Lent Retreat Meditation 7/7: Beginning Again and Again

    We are called to be saints in the middle of the world. And to become saints, we must begin again and again. During Lent, through our prayer, penance and almsgiving, we can follow Jesus closely. God loves us unconditionally. He calls us to live a life of commitment, and through that to live a life of joy.

    This meditation is the final of seven meditations we are posting from a Lent retreat by Father Timothy Uhen. During Lent, we seek a deeper love of God and neighbor through prayer, self-denial, and charity. The aim of these Lenten meditations is to help us, through Jesus, to gaze upon the glory of God and to realize that his kindness is a greater joy than life itself.

    Lent Retreat Meditation 5/7: The Sacred Humanity of Jesus

    In the Sacred Humanity of Christ, we have the perfect model for our life hear on Earth. Jesus said, "Learn from me." That is what the saints have done. Like Saint Paul, we should strive to live so that "it is not I who live, but Christ who lives in me."

    Lent Retreat Meditation 4/7: Death and Judgment

    While the prospect of death and judgment may bring a natural fear to our souls, our Lord is constantly reminding us that he is always with us, and that his mercy endures forever. Indeed, the reality of Last Things spurs us to use our time well and always be merciful to others.

    Lent Retreat Meditation 3/7: The Danger of Lukewarmness

    Jesus came to "cast fire upon the earth," yet the danger of lukewarmness is always lurking. We do well to heed the words of Our Blessed Mother at Cana, and do whatever Christ tells us.

    Lent Retreat Meditation 2/7: I am a Son of God

    Lent Retreat Meditation 2/7: I am a Son of God

    From the abundance of Love, God has created the world and given us a special place in it: We are made in his image and likeness. During a retreat, and during prayer, Jesus wants to “take me aside privately,” as he did with the deaf-mute, in order to heal me and bring me to a realization of my dignity as a son of God. Will I allow him to do so?
