Holding someone in the light is a form of intercessory prayer with visualization that sees the other in God’s perfect light.
I am holding you in the Light.
We Quakers say that when we intend to pray for someone,
when we want for someone what God wants for them –
peace and healing and well-being
and soundness of mind and body and spirit.

***
When we ‘hold in the Light,’ we are not just praying for physical healing
but also praying for the person to be made whole,
for their Spirit to be comforted, and their fears relieved.”
Ellie Caldwell (www.palmbeachquakers.org)
***
Hold yourself and others in the Light,
knowing that all are cherished by God.”

***
But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light,
then we have fellowship with each other,
and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin.
1 John 1:7 NLT
***
We live in the Light.
We live and hold others in the Light.
We hold ourselves and others to the Light.
