The Beholding Prayer Podcast is an experiential podcast designed to help you enter a deeper experience of God.
This series of guided prayer meditations is based on my new book Thirsting: Quenching Our Soul's Deepest Desire, an invitation in learning to drink more deeply of God's presence.
Today's prayer is a guided meditation on the desire of Christ expressed on the cross through his cry, "I thirst" (John 19:28). Of course in these words Jesus expresses his physical need for water, but in these words we also hear something of His deep, psalmic longing to heal and reconcile humanity to Himself. His thirst for us.
So, find somewhere quiet, pour yourself a coffee, and allow the Spirit to meet you where you are today.
