Today at church

Even with the distraction of children with coloring pages and crayons, this stood out to me:

Scripture is given to us so it can get up and walk around within us.

I really like this idea - that it's not a momentary thing, and that we aren't always changed instantly. Rather, we let it slowly have an effect. We can take some time to think about why it is meaningful and how we can respond.
It helps me find comfort because I know my journey will not be swift. Instead, it is slow and meandering like the scripture walking around within me.
