Be still (Fr. Richard Rohr on Psalm 46)

Find a quiet place, gently close your eyes, 

and take a few deep breaths.

Pray Psalm 46 sentence by sentence, 

repeating each sentence (aloud or to yourself) 

several times until you are ready to go on, 

taking a deep breath after each repetition.

Be still and know that I am God.

Be still and know that I AM.

Be still and know.

Be still.

Be.

Amen.

--Fr. Richard Rohr, Prayer of Being
