1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:07,400
Let's get started by taking a 
moment just to be thankful for 

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:19,280
all the blessings in life. 
And when you're ready, let your 

3
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:32,460
eyes close like the sun sets. 
Take a moment to consider this 

4
00:00:32,460 --> 00:00:39,440
verse and prayer. 
This hope will not lead to 

5
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,080
disappointment, for we know how 
dearly God loves us. 

6
00:00:52,210 --> 00:00:59,650
And again, this hope will not 
lead to disappointment, for we 

7
00:00:59,650 --> 00:01:17,320
know how dearly God loves us. 
Now take a moment to be grateful

8
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:31,960
for this opportunity to relax. 
Notice how good it feels just to

9
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:58,600
be here in this moment. 
Take a few nice big deep breaths

10
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:20,950
in. 
Allow your body and mind to 

11
00:02:20,950 --> 00:02:42,240
relax. 
Nothing else matters right now. 

12
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:49,120
There's nowhere to go. 
There's nothing to do. 

13
00:02:51,480 --> 00:03:19,920
Here you are. 
Allow your body to relax and 

14
00:03:19,920 --> 00:03:59,160
feel the calm of God's presence.
The thoughts may take you away, 

15
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:06,480
and that's OK. 
Don't resist the thoughts, don't

16
00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:12,120
force them back. 
Be friendly with your thoughts. 

17
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:22,480
When it feels natural, come back
to the feeling of relaxation in 

18
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:54,760
the body. 
Now, without changing the 

19
00:04:54,760 --> 00:05:01,200
breath, notice the quiet sound 
of your breathing. 

20
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:34,680
In through the nose and out 
through the mouth, 

21
00:05:50,500 --> 00:06:07,720
just watching the breath, 
watching the rise and the fall 

22
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:35,360
of the chest. 
Listening to the sounds of your 

23
00:06:35,360 --> 00:07:03,960
breath. 
Notice your feelings and 

24
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:17,580
emotions, just taking note of 
them and then coming back to the

25
00:07:17,580 --> 00:08:02,320
feeling of the breath. 
And now bring your attention to 

26
00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:18,070
the heart. 
Let your awareness settle on to 

27
00:08:18,070 --> 00:08:45,800
the heartbeat. 
Allow your awareness to fall and

28
00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:55,280
move inward, finding that place 
where you feel loved. 

29
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:26,680
Feel that sense of natural peace
that can only be found in God's 

30
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:43,710
presence. 
Remember, when you come near to 

31
00:09:43,710 --> 00:10:04,200
God, He will come near to you. 
Take this verse with you. 

32
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:12,000
This hope will not lead to 
disappointment, for we know how 

33
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:28,870
dearly God loves us. 
God, I know you're always with 

34
00:10:28,870 --> 00:10:33,350
me. 
Thank you for all of your 

35
00:10:33,350 --> 00:10:40,040
blessings. 
Help me to relax and let go in 

36
00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:45,600
your presence. 
I trust your plan for my life.
