1) In this Ignatian Guided Meditation I was able to use my imagination in the form of a prayer. During this prayer I was able to listen and reflect on a bible passage, as well as have a one-on-one conversation with Jesus. While listening to the bible passage from the story of Luke 5:17-20, I was able to imagine myself as one of the people in the story. The story was about how Jesus was able to heal people. Jesus is teaching a group of pharisees and teachers of the law when a group of men carry…
