ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Christian contemplation

Christian contemplation is a way of looking inward and connecting with God in your mind and heart. It is a way to help you draw closer to God and focus on His love and thoughts. To do Christian contemplation, sit quietly with your eyes closed and focus on your breathing. When your mind starts to wander, gently direct your focus back to the present moment. As you sit in stillness, try to be open to what God has to say to you or ask Him for wisdom. Spend time in prayer, reflecting on scripture and meditating on the things He wants you to learn.
