Let us contemplate the fullness of time captured in one divine perfect moment with reflection and awareness. Melt all the barriers that separate us from each other. Help us contemplate in our hearts and minds upon those we love and know.

Lord, let this moment contain all of you and the awareness of your goodness and never-ending love. In this moment, let us ponder your grace and mercy toward us and all creation. (Contemplation: Seeing the World through God’s Eyes)

We ask you to break down every barrier of our wills that separates us from you and causes us to judge others made in your image. Let us see in each moment the light of eternity and your Holy presence. Let your love fill our hearts, and your truth become our reality.

May we be your ambassadors of peace and love and proclaim it to everyone around us. Let us remember this world is not our home, and we are only passing through for a brief moment, and that war will be no more. Eternal love will be the theme of our heavenly home.

At this moment, we are one with you and all creation. Let our eyes see beyond our division and sin. Let us contemplate your divine plan for all humanity so that we might be one joined together in you, the fountain of life.

In this contemplative moment of reflection, let us visualize a hope beyond this world grounded in Your great love. Let us know that love never changes because our very existence is a perfect sign of your love for us.

So at this moment, let our hearts open fully to you. In the depths of our hearts and minds, let us move beyond our doubts and fears, and understand your plan for us. Let us dwell upon our life, and let us know as we contemplate in the silence you are seeking us.

As we open our hearts, you will see His glorious presence and the eternal hope of uniting your heart with His and with all humanity. We are His for all time.
