I miss you, too. Son Seth is nourishing himself with some Thomas Merton these days in his urban ministry internship in Asheville.

I remember being in catscan and petscan machines when I was undergoing treatment for lymphoma (14 year ago) and trying to imagine the sacred heart coming to comfort me. It was powerful so I will add that action of bringing the image up to my new reboot plan. Nourishing the spirit, soul, and body is so important.

Do a google search for lectionaries diving and you'll find lots of information. It's such a beautiful way to use God's word to bring you into a conversation with him. It's been around since the 2nd or 3rd century. A tried and tested tool that has almost been lost to a good portion of the church.

They are so interconnected. <br />The practice of lectio divina is unfamiliar to me, but it was mentioned in a favorite chapter, "Daughter," that I copied from Shauna Niequist's book, Present Over Perfect.
