Last week I stood in the middle of my studio with my hands lifted, crying in front of a canvas that hadn't been touched in months. I was tired. Tired of fighting the same fight, tired of grieving. And I knew exactly what I needed to do.
Listening to "Good Shepherd" by Joe L. Barnes, I grabbed green paint and smeared color across that canvas while I meditated on Psalm 23. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He restores my soul.
That practice has a name. It's called the Dwell Method: Read it, Write it, Say it, Sing it, Pray it. I didn't invent it for content. I built it in my own dry season, when the Bible reading checklist and the noisy mind and the guilt were all stacking up against me.
If your Bible time has become a box to check, nothing is wrong with your faith. You've just been using a few parts of your brain instead of 21 parts of your brain to engage the Word of God. Come dwell with me.
