Inner Peace in Divine Love Retreat

Ex 9 – Inseparable from God’s love

Preparation
I take a relaxed position with a straight back, my body poised for prayer. I make a gesture of reverence and humility.

Opening Prayer
I ask for the grace to direct my whole self toward the Trinity.

Desire
I desire the inseparable love of the Trinity.

Prayer
I use my imagination to re-create the upper room where Jesus and his disciples had their last meal. Soon the Spirit will be here with Pentecost fire, but at present it is just Jesus and I. We stand at a window, looking over domed rooftops, busy streets, and roads from Jerusalem. He tells me how nothing shall ever separate me from his love. Slowly reading the prayer text, I allow his words to grow into the muscles of my heart.

In response, I abide in Jesus while saying to him, gently and often, each of the desiring statements below for a few minutes each:

I am inseparable from your love.

I love you.

Thank you.

Conversation
I end my prayer with the Our Father.
