LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

Read Mark 6:30-34, 53-56 aloud to your self, pausing on any word or phrase that stands out to you.

Then read the passage again silently. Again, if there is a word or phrase that stands out to you, repeat it to yourself and think about its meaning. Abide with the passage.

Ask yourself why you heard what you heard in the passage?

What is it in your life that made you hear what you heard?

What might God be telling you?

For Christians in traditions that follow the Revised Common Lectionary, this passage will be the Gospel reading next Sunday. Meditate on it as much as possible until then.
