Most days, upon arising, I read the entry set aside for that day, in two to four daily devotional guides.* I always give thanks when the guides have chosen the same verse(s). Reading scripture in this manner often allows me to center my thoughts on the appropriate church season, and to concentrate, in a deeper way, on the selected verse(s). Thus my own reflections on the appointed scripture are enriched. An added bonus is that my prayer life takes on new dimensions, directions, and meaning.
*Devotional guides I read include “Forward Day by Day”, “Good News Daily”, “Living Light” (found on the web at www.nationwidechristiantrust.com and out of England), and “The Wayfarer Mosaic” (written by members of Fredericksburg United Methodist Church), and “Our Daily Bread”.
