Description: I posted about whether this was a viable thing a while ago and since then have given it a bit of a go. If your the kind of person who is stuck in an office all day Computer Reflections can be great way of escaping from the office for a while. A virtual cigarette break if you like. The way I like to use them is to read them and then go for a walk outside for a while. Although often I'll skip the walk outside which is a bit like trying to get fit by putting on sneakers but not going for a run.
Three computer reflections I've found helpful are...
Richard Rohr's Daily Reflections
Just a simple paragraph thought of Richard's every day. Richard is a Franciscan Priest and author. Simple and Short. Uses the clock on your computer to pick the date so you can look back at previous entries by changing the date on your computer.
Re:Jesus Reflection and Prayer
From the groovy dudes at Re:Jesus a U.K site and the least Catholic of the three reflections and the most elegant looking design with a very smooth flash animation. Has a morning, day and night reflections. The prayer exercise repeat themselves but it is a nice way to cycle through the scriptures.
Sacred Space (Irish Jesuits)
The longest of the three and the most clunky design, but try not to let that put you off. Follows a "The Presence of God", "Freedom", "Consciousness", "The Word", "Conversation" pattern and cycles through scripture with a new reflection every day.
