Today’s highlight is from the Saint John’s Bible project with subtle and vivid visuals to help conjure up new insights. Here’s an example at the start of the book of Matthew. Spend a few minutes with the pictures first – what catches your eye? Then, perhaps you’ll want to read a little bit of the description for the picture that is directly below the pictures?

POSSIBLE ACTIONS:

• How does this visual approach help (or not help) your appreciation of the scriptures. Spend a minute doodling about a portion of this week’s Lectionary reading…

O send out your light and your truth; let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy hill and to your dwelling. Then I will go to the altar of God, to God my exceeding joy; and I will praise you with the harp, O God, my God. ~ Psalm 43:3-4

• Consider listening to today’s Daily Prayer Audio with a focus on thanksgiving

Enjoy the day, filled with the Spirit!
