When I first learned Centering Prayer, I was so interested in it. The facilitator told me, “God is trying to balance you,” because I was so outgoing and I needed a balance in my life.  And I think Centering Prayer and Contemplative Outreach can help the whole world because everyone is learning for happiness in their life. They don’t know that they’re searching for God and they’re looking for happiness in all the wrong places. And I think Contemplative Outreach is showing them where to find this happiness.  


 

La Oración Centrante y la búsqueda de la felicidad

Cuando oí por primera vez acerca de la Oración Centrante me interesó muchísimo. El facilitador me dijo, “Dios está tratando de equilibrarte,” porque yo estaba muy enfocada en lo exterior y necesitaba equilibrar mi vida. Y creo que la Oración Centrante y Contemplative Outreach pueden ser de mucha ayuda para el mundo entero porque todos tratan de aprender cómo ser felices en su vida. No saben que están buscando a Dios y  buscan la felicidad en el lugar equivocado. Y creo que Contemplative Outreach les muestra dónde encontrarla.
