Every time I visit it, I learn. I skim way too much – think the internet makes that worse – so am trying to slow down, and delve deeper this year. Thanks for commenting, Michelle

I liked your comment about “nibbling at the great banquet and barely tasting Your goodness. And my favorite…They consumed your message until YOU CONSUMED THEM! How often do I leave early, unwilling to spend the time waiting?? Thanks for sharing your wisdom. Hugs!

Something amazing must have been happening in their hearts. What a worship filled moment!

I skim so often so one of my goals this year is to slow down and read more deeply. Thanks for commenting!

Something amazing really happen that day. I happened to be the reader last Sunday in Church and thought as I read this. I hope the way I read His word comes alive in the listeners. And of course our readings were short. LOL

AMEN!

I want to slow down and take the time to dissect and digest each word. God’s Word is to be our daily bread.
Many blessings my friend!

I found you last year when I was doing some research for “lectio divina” for my own personal spiritual growth..and I have loved your space! I am linking it with StudioJRU’s “small world” link up as a way of sharing what I have found with others…here is the link to her spot (she is an online friend and an (in)courage blogger/artist, is she sounds familiar): http://studiojru.com/2013/01/26/its-a-small-world-blog-hop/

I agree, with everything instantly at our fingertips, sitting and listening for a bit is hard. But I want to. 🙂
