We need to listen to God's word, a reflection of God's works, a rehearsing of God's deeds.
Patrick told us that the Old Testament has 58 references to "meditation". All of these times refers to a listening of God's works, a rehearsing of God's deeds.
Meditate means to consider something, to remember, to rehearse something in your mind.
Meditation allows us to connect ourselves to God:
~with our minds (what we're thinking about)
~our hearts (what we're feeling) and...
~our souls (what we're concerned about).
