Meditations

My reflection for the online Church of England service included a meditation I wrote on transformation. Over the years I have written a considerable number of meditations alongside my poetry. Some have been posted here; some in sermons and some in their own right. Others are available to download from other sites.

This post provides links to the majority of these meditations:

• 'Transformation';  
• 'Come to the feast of life';
• 'Jesus and Pilate';
• 'Unregarded';
• 'Where is Jesus now?'
• 'The Mark of the Cross';
• 'Travelling Light';
• 'Alternative Nine Lessons';
• 'Station 14 - Jesus is laid in the tomb';
• 'In Between';
• 'The Passion';
• 'I come alive';
• 'Prayer is attention paid';
• 'Borne to be born';
• 'Wonder of wonders';
• 'Love is ...';
• 'Until I see';
• 'Where God likes it best';
• 'Touch me not';
• 'Love is all we need';
• 'Baptism';
• 'Praise the Lord';
• 'Waiting'.

'Come, Lord Jesus, Come' is an Advent devotional (booklet & slideshow) by Victoria Emily Jones based on an Advent meditation written by myself.

Mark of the Cross and The Passion are collections of images, meditations and prayers by Henry Shelton and myself on The Stations of the Cross. They provide helpful reflections and resources for Lent and Holy Week. These collections can both be found as downloads from theworshipcloud.

'Five Trios' is a series of poems on thin places and sacred spaces in the Diocese of Chelmsford. The five poems in the series are:

• 'Barking';
• 'Bradwell';
• 'Broomfield';
• 'Pleshey'; and
• 'Runwell'.

These poems have been published by Amethyst Review and International Times. IT have also published a poem, The ABC of creativity, which covers attention, beginning and creation.

Other of my poems have appeared in Amethyst Review. They are: 'Are/Are Not', 'Attend, attend' and 'Maritain, Green, Beckett and Anderson in conversation down through the ages'. To read my poems published by Stride, click here, here, here, here, and here.
