5 Simple Ways to Meditate on God’s Word

I’m excited to introduce a writer friend to this community. Rebecca and I connected online several years ago since we move in the same writing and blogging circles. Her writings resonate with me. And particularly this one with her practical tips for how to meditate on God’s Word.

Because, if we’re honest, we often complicate parts of the Christian journey.

For a long time I thought I needed to wake up with the sun when the rest of my family was comfortably asleep, sit in a special chair (probably facing a window so I could see the sunrise) and hold my worn Bible in my lap as I met with God each day.

The problem: I really like sleep.

I couldn’t seem to do the early mornings with God so I figured I was just getting an “F” on my report card for Morning Meditation with Him. The good news is, there is no report card. Also, there’s no wrong time to be with God.

Here are 5 simple ways to meditate on and incorporate more of God’s Word in your day.

(1.) Verse of the Day

This is one of my favorite ways to incorporate scripture in my day. With a simple app like YouVersion, you can read a verse each day right from your phone. (Bonus tip: writing the verse out in a notebook or journal is a great way to spend a few more minutes letting God’s Word penetrate your soul! Check out how I’ve done it here.)
