Day 20: Yahweh Rohi, Be my Shepherd

The Well Church in The City of New York

Day 20: Yahweh Rohi, Be my Shepherd

March 29, 2022 • Rev. Aaron Bjerke • Psalm 23:1

A shepherd's primary responsibility is the safety and welfare of its flock.

In ancient scripture, a king describes God as his shepherd. He writes in Psalm 23: Yahweh Rohi is my shepherd. I lack nothing. You make me lie down in green pastures, lead me beside quiet waters, and refresh my soul.

Today's meditation will use our spiritual imagination to visualize being protected, provided for, and carried by God as our shepherd.

Silence, Be Still and Know

April 15, 2022 • Rev. Aaron Bjerke • Psalm 46:10

As our Lenten Journey comes to an end on Good Friday, we bring our awareness of connecting with God through silence. Have you ever experienced God at the very ground of your being? Today we invite you to answer God's invitation to: "Be still and know..."

Day 32: Humble

April 14, 2022 • Rev. Aaron Bjerke • John 13:14–17

A Trappist monk once said: Pride makes us artificial and humility makes us real. There is nothing that is more disarming than being in the presence of someone who is humble. Jesus approaches us with divine humility in exchange for our pride. We invite you today to open your heart to being filled with the gift of Jesus' humility.

Day 31: Light of the World

April 13, 2022 • Rev. Aaron Bjerke • John 8:12

Ancient scripture in the book of John shares: "In Jesus was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." Today in our meditation, we invite you to open your spiritual imagination to ponder and visualize Jesus' divine light.
