Daily Devotion - Nourishment of Scripture

Each day this week The Daily Devotions will reflect on one of the passages of scripture for this coming Sunday, February 12, The Sixth Sunday after the Epiphany.  To begin our week of nourishment from scripture, reflect on this quote from Eugene Peterson author of  Eat this Book.

"Christians feed on Scripture. Holy Scripture nurtures the holy community as food nurtures the human body. Christians don't simply learn or study or use Scripture; we assimilate it, take it into our lives in such a way that it gets metabolized into acts of love, cups of cold water, missions into all the world, healing and evangelism and justice in Jesus' name, hands raised in adoration of the Father, feet washed in the company with the Son."
