How about you were DEAD and now you are ALIVE.

Lectio Divina - Divine Reading. A devotional/prayerful reading of the Bible that has existed for over 1,700 years. An ancient invitation.

The practice understands Scripture as a meeting place for a personal encounter/living conversation with God
The cross of Christ reaches far beyond personal salvation - His death and resurrection makes possible to reconciliation of ‘all things’; not just our souls but systems from broken hearts, homes, and bodies, to businesses, eco systems and ideologies
Beloved, there is to be no more surrendering your identity to a negative. I am going to make war on all your negativity. Whose side do you want to be on?
