1
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:05,520
The events of your life are 
woven together like a tapestry. 

2
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:13,640
All of your hopes, desires, 
heart breaks, and 

3
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:18,000
disappointments are woven 
together to create the story of 

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:24,880
you. 
Your perspective is like the 

5
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:28,760
side of the tapestry where all 
of the threads are seemingly 

6
00:00:28,760 --> 00:00:34,400
disconnected. 
But God sees the other side of 

7
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:38,760
the tapestry and at some point 
you will too. 

8
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:46,240
God is taking all the parts of 
your life and is creating 

9
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:58,080
something beautiful. 
Today, as you meditate, remember

10
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:03,240
that your life has a purpose, 
even if you can't see it all the

11
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:14,550
time. 
OK, let's begin by taking a few 

12
00:01:14,550 --> 00:01:18,710
seconds to consciously relax the
body. 

13
00:01:23,470 --> 00:01:29,400
And when you're ready, allow 
your eyes to slowly close. 

14
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,880
Now take a moment to consider 
this verse. 

15
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:43,360
We are convinced that every 
detail of our lives is 

16
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:49,200
continually woven together to 
fit into God's perfect plan. 

17
00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:05,040
And again, we are convinced that
every detail of our lives is 

18
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:10,280
continually woven together to 
fit into God's perfect plan. 

19
00:02:22,390 --> 00:02:26,110
Bring your attention to the 
feeling of the breath. 

20
00:02:32,210 --> 00:02:39,730
Let it settle into a natural 
rhythm, effortless and easy. 

21
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:54,440
Notice how good it feels just to
breathe 

22
00:03:06,650 --> 00:03:13,610
with each inhale, Let your body 
fill up with new life. 

23
00:03:16,970 --> 00:03:23,810
With each exhale, release and 
let your body relax. 

24
00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:40,760
Feel your feet on the floor and 
the weight of your body in the 

25
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:55,720
chair. 
Now gently bring your attention 

26
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:06,240
to your emotions, just noticing 
the feelings that you brought 

27
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:19,680
with you today. 
Not engaging with the emotions, 

28
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:35,670
just noticing them. 
As an observer, remember that 

29
00:04:35,670 --> 00:04:39,710
you can leave those feelings 
right where they are. 

30
00:04:45,430 --> 00:04:51,910
Just allow those thoughts to 
bubble up and out. 

31
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:07,960
Remember, today is a new day 
with new opportunities. 

32
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:28,060
God is working in your life 
with an easy awareness. 

33
00:05:29,300 --> 00:05:32,700
Bring your attention to the 
space in the room. 

34
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:50,440
Just noticing the space with an 
easy curiosity. 

35
00:05:56,920 --> 00:06:16,380
Notice your place in the room. 
Feel the air on your skin. 

36
00:06:26,570 --> 00:06:29,170
Listen to the sounds in the 
room. 

37
00:06:33,010 --> 00:06:36,930
Maybe it's quiet in the room, 
maybe it's not. 

38
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:51,890
Both are OK. 
You're just listening and 

39
00:06:51,890 --> 00:07:03,340
welcoming the sounds as part of 
the exercise, not wishing to 

40
00:07:03,340 --> 00:07:09,220
change the sounds, just 
accepting the sounds as they 

41
00:07:09,220 --> 00:07:34,960
are. 
When it feels natural, slowly 

42
00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:37,720
bring your awareness to the 
breath. 

43
00:07:47,620 --> 00:07:52,980
Allow your breath to be a 
reminder to stay in this present

44
00:07:52,980 --> 00:08:07,290
moment. 
If your mind begins to wander, 

45
00:08:08,690 --> 00:08:12,290
you can always come back to the 
feeling of the breath. 

46
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:34,720
Relax and let your body honor 
the natural calm that only comes

47
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:37,480
from the presence of a loving 
God. 

48
00:08:52,310 --> 00:08:58,910
Take this verse with you. 
We are convinced that every 

49
00:08:58,910 --> 00:09:03,990
detail of our lives is 
continually woven together to 

50
00:09:03,990 --> 00:09:21,760
fit into God's perfect plan. 
Allow your awareness to slowly 

51
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:29,480
come back to your body and when 
it feels natural, begin to open 

52
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,000
your eyes. 
Sit back in your chair. 

53
00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,240
Maybe you want to stretch a 
little bit. 

54
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:44,760
Do whatever feels good. 
Take a moment to notice how you 

55
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,600
feel. 
I hope you feel a little more 

56
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,280
relaxed. 
We'll see you again tomorrow for

57
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:54,560
another day of hope.
