Welcome to our daily rosary meditation. Let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen. Let's call to mind all those we've promised to pray for.

John of the Cross says that contemplation, otherwise known as infused prayer, is nothing but a hidden, peaceful, and loving inflow of God.

If it is given room, it will inflame the spirit with love.

Contemplation is a direct intimate experience of the presence of God.

Therefore it is the closest thing in this life to the experience of God we will have in heaven.

So really, contemplation is the beginning of heaven on earth.

Now, contemplation is not something that can be achieved by human effort at all. It is a gift from God

when the soul is ready. Contemplation is called infused prayer because the soul receives it passively, just as one receives sunlight by doing no more than opening the shutters. In contemplation, Jesus comes to us in a way that we

experience him. We really get to do as the scriptures say. We taste and see how good the Lord is.

Our Father who art in heaven, hollow would be your name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Give us a stare our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into

temptation but deliver us from evil, Amen.
