Mindfully Meditating in Matthew (First 100 days of 2023)
Passage Matthew chapter – the number of the day of February, 2023
It doesn’t matter which version you choose. It can be digital or paper. You can use one of those fancy coloring bibles and do a page or coloring along with the passage.
Mindfulness –
- choose a verse,
- set a timer for 5 minutes, or whatever works for you.
- example: Matt 1:18a
- repeat to yourself, and at each word, enunciate the next word in the sentence starting with the first word…
example:
- 18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about
- THIS is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about
- This IS how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about
- This is HOW the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about.
…and so on. This will cause you to look at the verse more intently, and may have you memorize it before your five minutes are done.
Quick Questions –
if you have time, or to think about over the course of the day, and jot down thoughts later. I hope to have several, at least 5 each day. I am writing them as I am doing these readings, so, be patient with me! No right or wrong answers, just giving you a way to dig in!

Hi!
My hope in the midst of despair and my joy in the face of depression is because of my relationship with Jesus Christ. If you do not have one, or are not sure you will join him in heaven, please check out these links:

Thanks for joining me in this journey,
In His hands and under His wings,
~Christi
Ps 63:7 Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.
“The Lord does not give me rules, but He makes His standard very clear.
If my relationship to Him is that of love, I will do what He says without hesitation.
If I hesitate, it is because I love someone I have placed in competition with Him, namely, myself.” – from My Utmost for His highest
