Welcome! Today we begin to apply those past lessons as we take in God's Word. Remember, read it slowly. There is no rush! The following questions will help take us through the process. His Word is truth. Let us drink in this Living Water!


Scripture - “But blessed are those who trust in the Lord
and have made the Lord their hope and confidence.
They are like trees planted along a riverbank,
with roots that reach deep into the water.
Such trees are not bothered by the heat

or worried by long months of drought.
Their leaves stay green,
and they never stop producing fruit.

Jeremiah 17:7-8 NIV



Reading - Slowly read the Scripture passage several times




Meditation - Take some time to reflect on the words and phrases in the text. Which words, phrases or images speak to you most?




Prayer - Offer the internalized passage back to God in the form of a personalized prayer of adoration, confession, renewal, petition, intercession, affirmation, or thanksgiving.






Contemplation - What word or image captures the spirit of the passage for you?
