1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:05,080
Purpose makes the most mundane 
task important. 

2
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:10,560
It changes what is meaningless 
into something meaningful. 

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:17,400
By asking God to fill you with 
his purpose, we're asking to see

4
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:23,640
the world as God does, to see 
other people as God does. 

5
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:29,800
So today, let God's presence 
bring you a new vision. 

6
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:35,760
Let it help you see the eternal 
worth of the people God has put 

7
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:39,760
in your path. 
Think about that as you settle 

8
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:45,920
into this meditation. 
Let's go ahead and get started 

9
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,880
by gently bringing your 
attention to the breath. 

10
00:00:53,080 --> 00:01:01,720
Notice the rise and the fall of 
the chest, and when you're 

11
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:07,760
ready, let your eyes close like 
the sun sets. 

12
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,920
Take a moment to consider this 
verse. 

13
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Do not pass by a man in need, 
for you may be the hand of God 

14
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:36,200
to him. 
And again, do not pass by a man 

15
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:41,240
in need, for you may be the hand
of God to him. 

16
00:01:56,450 --> 00:02:01,410
And now bring your attention to 
the heartbeat. 

17
00:02:05,330 --> 00:02:09,009
Allow its rhythm to relax the 
body. 

18
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:23,280
As you begin to relax, bring 
your attention to the weight of 

19
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:38,300
the body. 
Allow the arms and the legs to 

20
00:02:38,300 --> 00:02:47,260
become heavy. 
Allow the face to soften all the

21
00:02:47,260 --> 00:02:55,080
way down through the neck. 
Soften the skin. 

22
00:03:01,220 --> 00:03:05,580
Allow the corners of the eyes to
relax. 

23
00:03:10,460 --> 00:03:14,420
Let the shoulders fall away from
the ears. 

24
00:03:20,730 --> 00:03:33,080
Release the elbows. 
Let the wrists and the hands 

25
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:44,000
relax. 
Soften the chest and the 

26
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:55,380
stomach, release the hips and 
the thighs. 

27
00:04:04,540 --> 00:04:09,140
Relax the calves all the way 
down to the ankles. 

28
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:24,360
Allow the entire body to let go 
and totally relax. 

29
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:42,560
There is nowhere to go. 
You are exactly where you're 

30
00:04:42,560 --> 00:05:02,640
supposed to be. 
Bring your attention to the 

31
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:14,740
feeling of the breath. 
Let it settle into a natural 

32
00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:35,920
rhythm, effortless and easy. 
Notice how good it feels just to

33
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:52,990
breathe 
with each inhale, Let your body 

34
00:05:52,990 --> 00:06:03,910
fill up with new life. 
With each exhale, release and 

35
00:06:03,910 --> 00:06:20,360
let your body relax. 
Feel your feet on the floor and 

36
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,400
the weight of your body in the 
chair. 

37
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:46,040
Now gently bring your attention 
to your emotions, just noticing 

38
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,400
the feelings that you brought 
with you today. 

39
00:07:02,840 --> 00:07:09,040
Not engaging with the emotions, 
just noticing them. 

40
00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:28,550
As an observer, 
remember that you can leave 

41
00:07:28,550 --> 00:07:31,710
those feelings right where they 
are. 

42
00:07:41,430 --> 00:07:47,910
Just allow those thoughts to 
bubble up and out. 

43
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:06,480
Remember, today is a new day 
with new opportunities. 

44
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:28,060
God is working in your life. 
Take this verse with you. 

45
00:08:30,460 --> 00:08:36,460
Do not pass by a man in need, 
for you may be the hand of God 

46
00:08:36,460 --> 00:08:53,080
to him. 
Gently bring your awareness back

47
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:58,040
to the feeling of the body. 
Notice the weight of the body on

48
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:04,920
the chair and when you feel 
ready, allow your eyes to open 

49
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:12,160
and take a nice deep breath. 
Notice how your breath changes 

50
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:17,960
the way you feel. 
I hope you feel a little more in

51
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:22,560
touch with God. 
We'll see you again next time 

52
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,680
with hope, mindfulness, and 
prayer.
