Are you looking for Spiritual Direction?

You have been a believer for a long time, now. But you are not satisfied with your prayer life; want to live a life pleasing to the Lord but are not able to; you want to do more for the Lord but cannot figure out what or how? You want to hear the voice of God but are unable to discern whether what you are hearing is his voice. If any of these resonate with you, then what you are looking for is spiritual direction.

A Spiritual Director (SD) offers spiritual direction. He/she will be present with the Directee (D) on his/her spiritual journey for a period of time. SD will listen to the D, point towards God and encourage him/her to pray. SD will join the D and co-listen to God. Spiritual Direction does not involve counselling. Any counselling issue should be addressed separately.

Spiritual Director will offer space for the Directees to:

  • Explore their experience/journey with God and draw closer to God
  • Listen to God speaking into his/her life
  • Follow God more closely through loving obedience
  • Share and examine their joys, fears, desires, struggles in a safe place
  • Come spiritually unstuck

Spiritual Director will offer:

  • To be present to D in reflection
  • Contemplative listening
  • To suggest prayer practices for growing closer to God
  • Listen with the D and notice what God might be saying or doing
  • Encourage D to make any changes inspired by the Holy Spirit
Some of the prayer practices we will consider are:
 
  • Centering Prayer
  • Lectio Divina
  • Visio Divina
  • Examen
  • Biblical Imaginative Prayer
  • Five-senses meditation
