Both the Hebrew and Christian scriptures contain an abundance of wisdom on healing and wholeness that will help us lead a healthy, happy life. The Holy One continues to speak today in the sacred text of our lives. Each of us is called to be a living Word of God in our contemporary world- proclaiming divine love, peace, justice, healing and wholeness. We often read Scripture from an outsider's perspective, remaining at a distance from its teachings and stories, yet trying to comprehend its meaning for our lives. The Gospel of John invites us to make God's Word our dwelling place: "If you remain in my word, you will truly be my disciples." (8:31). This implies that we are to become participants and open ourselves to Holy Wisdom speaking to us today through the sacred texts of scripture and of our lives. Entering into Scripture takes imagination. Through imagi­native prayer we walk inside the biblical passage to become one with those who are involved in the scene. Praying Scripture with the imagina­tion means entering into the details and emotions of the passage and listening as the Holy One speak from within the text. This form of prayer can help us experience fresh insight into living vibrant lives today. As we pray Scripture using the gift of our imagination, we can see ourselves in the various characters in the story. Deep within each of us there is a hunger for a close, personal relationship with the Holy One. Through Scripture we can begin to recognize the Creator's loving presence everywhere. A real transformation can occur as our personal oneness with the divine develops. We find a fresh spiritual way of thinking, and adopt the mind and heart of Christ.
