Be Still...
Based on the simple prayer of being from Fr. Richard Rohr, the text comes from Psalm 46:10 “Be still and know that I am God.”
Find a quiet place, gently close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Prepare to pray the Psalm in 5 consecutively diminishing sentences.
Either aloud or quietly to yourself, say the words, “Be still and know that I am God.”
After a couple deep breaths, pray, “Be still and know that I am.”
After a couple deep breaths, pray “Be still and know.”
After a couple deep breaths, pray, “Be still.”
After a couple deep breaths, pray, “Be.”
When ready, pray, “Amen.”
