How to read these verses
A single verse can carry a lot of weight, so we try to keep it where it belongs. Under every verse is one line of context: who first said or wrote it, to whom, and why it can still help. Read the verses around it in your own Bible too; that is where the fuller picture is.
- Read slowly. Pick one verse, read it a few times, and notice the word that stays with you.
- Pray it back. Turn the verse into your own words to God. Each page links to a matching prayer.
- Carry one line. Write it down, or let the Verse of the Day bring you a new one each morning.
