Lectio Divinia: Partake in the Blessings
2026/01/30
Allow this passage from The Message to engage your whole self, so Scripture becomes an encounter rather than a concept. You’ll hear “This is my body” and “This is my blood” as a present-tense invitation to participate, remember, and partake. The practice moves from attentive listening to personal response, offering time for a simple conversation with Jesus.
For more on the theme Partake in the Blessings, see page 96 of With God in Every Breath by Whitney R. Simpson.
