SPIRITUAL
DIRECTION :
Janene
meets regularly with several people of various denominations. She
provides an open, loving, and confidential environment in which to share your
individual faith journey. Through prayer, listening and companioning
Janene helps you recognize God’s presence
within and around you. In doing so you are able to develop a more
personal relationship with God which in turn draws you into a deeper level of
prayer.
Through
more reflective prayer you are better able to discern God’s movement within you and the call to live out your faith in
the context of everyday life. Since God touches all areas of our
life, all aspects are appropriate for discussion in a spiritual direction
relationship. Spiritual direction differs from counseling because it is
built on prayer and spiritual intimacy. Also in contrast to counseling
is a focus that presumes you are already complete in God’s image but may not yet fully recognize or accept it.
The
call to seek spiritual direction is initiated by God. We need only be
attentive to the still, small voice within to hear it. The call comes
sometimes as a yearning to know God better or to understand our
purpose. Sometimes it focuses on discerning God’s will for us at certain critical times in our
life. At times it may be a vague feeling of emptiness within us or a
desire for inner peace.
