1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:05,720
God gave us Jesus as the 
ultimate example of what a life 

2
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:10,520
well lived looks like. 
We even have bracelets that 

3
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:14,560
remind us to ask ourselves, what
would Jesus do? 

4
00:00:16,680 --> 00:00:22,160
But the simple truth is we can't
imitate our way into living like

5
00:00:22,240 --> 00:00:26,120
Jesus. 
The only way to live like Jesus 

6
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:30,640
is to spend time with them to 
become more like Him. 

7
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:37,680
When you get to know His heart, 
you begin to see the world as He

8
00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:45,200
does. 
OK, let's get started by 

9
00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:55,760
allowing the body to relax, and 
when you're ready, let your eyes

10
00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:05,200
close like the sun sets. 
Now take a moment to consider 

11
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:11,520
this verse. 
You have made known to me the 

12
00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:25,150
path of life. 
And again, you have made known 

13
00:01:25,150 --> 00:01:47,280
to me the path of life. 
When it feels natural, begin to 

14
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:58,300
consciously relax the body. 
Release the tension in your 

15
00:01:58,300 --> 00:02:11,730
hands, let the shoulders relax 
and fall away from the ears. 

16
00:02:18,780 --> 00:02:23,420
Allow the neck to relax and let 
go. 

17
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:41,120
Take a big deep breath in. 
Release your stress. 

18
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:55,050
Let go of your frustrations. 
If your mind is full of 

19
00:02:55,050 --> 00:03:10,480
thoughts, it's OK. 
When it feels natural, just come

20
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,000
back to the feeling of the 
breath. 

21
00:03:19,890 --> 00:03:25,250
We aren't holding on to the 
thoughts, we're just noticing 

22
00:03:25,250 --> 00:03:40,700
them and letting them go. 
Bring your awareness to the way 

23
00:03:40,700 --> 00:03:50,480
your body feels. 
Notice how your breath relaxes 

24
00:03:50,480 --> 00:04:00,310
the body. 
Allow that natural rhythm of 

25
00:04:00,310 --> 00:04:08,950
your breath to calm your body. 
Not trying to change anything, 

26
00:04:10,510 --> 00:04:14,390
just accepting the body the way 
it is. 

27
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:29,760
Allow yourself to relax in the 
loving presence of God. 

28
00:04:49,300 --> 00:04:53,540
Now bring your attention to the 
position of the body. 

29
00:04:57,700 --> 00:05:02,940
Make sure you can breathe in an 
open and natural way. 

30
00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:25,960
Allow the chest to open and take
a few nice deep breaths. 

31
00:05:34,210 --> 00:05:38,650
Let the breath fill the body up 
with life. 

32
00:05:50,050 --> 00:05:55,010
With each breath, you're 
bringing your awareness into 

33
00:05:55,010 --> 00:06:14,640
this moment. 
Relax and allow God to speak to 

34
00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:34,960
you in the way that He wants. 
Let your thoughts go and allow 

35
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,520
your awareness to rest in this 
moment. 

36
00:06:47,690 --> 00:06:51,570
If your thoughts wander off, 
that's OK. 

37
00:06:53,890 --> 00:06:56,610
It's natural for the thoughts to
drift. 

38
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:10,960
As best you can, leave those 
thoughts right where they are 

39
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,560
and come back to that feeling of
your body. 

40
00:07:25,290 --> 00:07:31,090
Our feelings and emotions can 
distract us from the natural 

41
00:07:31,090 --> 00:07:39,690
calm of God's love. 
There isn't anything to 

42
00:07:39,690 --> 00:07:44,000
discover. 
It's always been there. 

43
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:56,920
This is a safe place. 
God loves you. 

44
00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:20,760
Take this verse with you. 
You have made known to me the 

45
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:42,120
path of life. 
Softly begin to bring your 

46
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:48,840
awareness back to the body, back
to that feeling of weight in the

47
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:53,520
body. 
And when you're ready, slowly 

48
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:58,160
open your eyes and take a big 
deep breath in. 

49
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:04,320
Take a moment to check in and 
notice how you feel. 

50
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,720
I hope you feel a little more 
present. 

51
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:13,160
We'll see you again tomorrow for
another day of hope. 

52
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:15,240
Take care.
