Lectio Divina: Come Way Awhile (Mark 6:7, 12-13, 30-32)

We never seem to stop moving. Among all that, the voice of Jesus invites us to pause. In Mark 6:30–32, He calls His disciples to “come away and rest awhile,” reminding them - and us - that rest is not laziness, but sacred trust. In this guided Lectio Divina, you’ll be led slowly through this passage, listening for the gentle voice of Christ calling you into stillness. Together, we’ll reflect, rest, and pray: allowing His presence to restore what busyness has worn thin. Let this time of prayer draw you back to the sacred rhythm of grace where your worth is not in doing, but in being loved.

Thank you. I am reminded to go away & rest. 🙏🏾

Glad you are back with new lectio divina contemplations, Br. Frederick-James! This restored my weary and battered heart. Slowly down to retreat with the Father. Thank you for uploading 🌻🙏🏼

So good to hear your reflections again🙏🏻 may we rest in His Presence today. I personally find it hard to “rest” so this is very often my prayer 🛐

Amen 🙏🏾
