Meditation has been used for centuries. The Psalmist said in Psalm 1, verse 2:
> But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
> And in His law he meditates day and night. (NASB1995)
Meditation is also described in a book called *Psycho-Cybernetics*. This book highlights the importance of using one's mind to become better and to develop good qualities. Maltz, the author, says to use mental images of who you want to become or when executing a process, keeping the end-goal in mind.
Chad Brewer, a minister at my church, preached on mediation in January of 2025. He recommends taking 30 minutes to an hour and thinking about a verse or some quality of God. He also recommends thinking about some character's perspective during an event recorded. I want to expand on this. It is through mediation and using the idea of mental pictures that we can become more like Christ. Christ took time to think and pray to God alone, so if we want to be more like Christ, we should meditate on His Word.
