Praying in Color

Devotional Art, Faith 1 Minute

1 Cor 12_1-11

 1 Corinthians 12:1-11

I am in the middle of reviewing a book from Paraclete Press titled “Praying In Color,” by Sybil MacBeth. Ms. Macbeth offers a way to visually connect with one’s prayers and/or lectio, offering the possibility of praying with the right side of the brain. It really isn’t about creating good art, but instead doodling one’s way to concentration and insite.

This picture represents some of my thoughts on the passage for this morning — 1 Corinthians 12: 1-11. I may continue to post whatever emerges in the days ahead, so don’t be surprised if you see some strange things.
