Begin Communion

Read today’s passage, then explore two quiet suggestions from elsewhere in Scripture. When you find a passage that speaks to it, bring your own witness. The suggestions step aside as your Communion takes shape.

About Communion

How Communion works

Each day, readers bring passages of one to three verses that speak to their devotion.

Everything brought here is shared with everyone for the day, without names, profiles, comments, or counts.

Today and the three days before are kept here; older days are let go.

Word meaning

Prayer

“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly. But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.”

Matthew 6:6–7
