The practice of Centering Prayer…might be called the first step on the ladder of contemplative prayer. As our practice becomes more habitual, the action of the Spirit’s gifts of wisdom and understanding become more powerful and gradually take over our prayer, enabling us to rest habitually in the presence of God. Waiting on God in the practice of Centering Prayer strengthens our capacity for interior silence and makes us sensitive to the delicate movements of the Spirit in daily life that lead to purification and holiness.
by Thomas Keating from Intimacy with God
“Be still and know that I am God.” Psalm 46:10
