HOW ARE WE TO MEDITATE ???



How are we to meditate?   I have participated in two meditations, but without instruction other than to get comfortable. I try to focus on what I think I should be meditating on, giving thanks to God and all that He and Jesus have done for me, but I found myself being confronted by images and people seeming to try and speak to me. Are these visions evil?  In what manner should we meditate? The word meditate appears in the Bible 14 times. The Bible tells us how to pray, worship, praise, even how to preach, teach and fast. It tells us how not to meditate in Mathew, but I have not found instrutions on how to meditate that is not idolatry. So, what is the focus for a Christian to meditate?
