The verse we consider is from the Gospel of Luke 10:38-42. We read it in 3 versions, then we contemplate it.

When we become aware of God’s love, the more we are aware of his nature and goodness, we become wholesome, and we journey towards a fulfilling life. Dwelling in his presence, resting, reading his word, hearing it once, hearing it again, then again, is necessary. Don’t rush, go slow. Read slowly. Linger on God’s word. Enjoy.
