Like every relationship, growing closer to God isn’t something that happens overnight. It takes time, effort, and consistency. It is a slow, intimate process that should be approached as a life-long journey. As a pastoral team, one of the best tools we use to maintain a new relationship with the Lord is our Lectio Divina Journals. These journals walk us through God’s Word at a meditative pace and provide a place to write down thoughts and revelations from the Lord. Personally, it helps us slow down and get the Word through you, instead of just getting through the Word.
