Dhikr for the 18th week of the ordinary time (B)

Dhikr for the 18th week of the ordinary year (B)

“Do not work for food that perishes but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him the Father, God, has set his seal.” (John 6: 27)

Do we toil for the food that endures… What is God’s seal on our work and life…?

Today, we remember the Nuclear Holocaust in Hiroshima... and on the 9th of August a second Atomic Bomb was dropped in Nagasaki. We pause in prayer not only to remember the dead and the victims... but also to manifest our resolve that NEVER again we shall allow such tragedies to visit the earth.

DHIKR SIMPLE METHOD...
Dhikr is an Arabic word for remembrance. In the “tariqa” (the way) movement, dhikr developed into a form of prayer… It is a prayer of the heart… following three simple steps:

1. Write in one’s heart a certain passage of the Holy Writ…
2. Make the same passage ever present in one’s lips.
3. Then wait for God’s disclosure on the meaning of the passage…that interprets one’s life NOW…!

It takes a week of remembering (dhikr)…or even more days to relish the beauty of this method…
