Flowing Water

    You are alone in this room by yourself.
    A stream passes near by.
    Trickling down past the grass and dirt.
    You lie down and relax.
    You begin to breathe.

    Breathe in
    Breathe out
    Breathe in
    Breathe out
    The water flows around you.
    Breathe in
    Breathe out
    The water flows around you.
    Breathe in
    Breathe out
    Water is a source of life.
    Most of your body is water.
    Breathe in
    Breathe out
    The smell of the water refreshes you.
    As you lie the streame begins to move around you.
    Flowing fresh water.
    Water which has come from the Jordan river.
    Blessed water.
    It now moves around you.
    Flowing past.
    The water moves around your feet.
    Around and around your feet.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your knees.
    Around and around your knees.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your hips.
    Around and around your hips.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your stomach.
    Around and around your stomach.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your hands.
    Around and around your hands.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your shoulders.
    Around and around your shoulders.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water moves around your head.
    Around and around your head.
    Cleansing.
    Blessing.
    Healing.
    Moving around and around
    Flowing in and out.
    The water flows past and around you.
    It washes you and pushes the dirt away.
    You release your pain.
    It flows away.
    You relax.

    Flowing away
    Flowing water
    Washing you.
    Cleansing your soul.

          In your own time. Come back to the space where you are.

Jesus is with you.
    Jesus was washed by the waters of the Jordan.
    Many early Christians were washed by the waters of the Jordan.
    May you not forget
    the source of life which God pours onto you.
    Your body is holy
    because God is holy.
    Jesus pour your water onto my soul.
