Middle Minutes Adoration

RESOURCE ALERT 👉🏽: I’ve been fascinated by writings about WWII since I read Elie Wiesel’s Night 15 years ago. This year, I decided to tackle Bonhoeffer’s biography. (And I don’t love biographies.) ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Just after the turn of this new year, I read how he would read the Moravian daily Bible texts with his daily devotions. I made a note to look into these. (A man who lived and died as he did makes me want to know what he read.) ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The very next day, The Moravian Daily Texts for 2021 arrived in my mailbox as a random gift from a friend (!!!). This was not an Amazon purchase; these texts are obscure enough to cause me to pay attention to this gift and when it arrived. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I know little of their history, except that the old texts are re-purposed year after year. Around 3:30 each day, I’ve sunk into my bedroom chair and breath-prayed through the antiphonal scripture and hymn excerpts. This is a sweet devotional … (and I don’t really like devotionals, either 😉 — I’m a picky reader).⁣⁣

There is no “right” way to study the Word — let this story be your reminder. He leads. If you are hungry for more of His Word, ask Him where to start. He leads.
