Praying with Images

(Visio Divina)

I have included a creative exercise for you.

Scroll through the images below. Gently pay attention which image draws your attention. Come back to that image after viewing all the offerings and sit with it.

  • What attracts you to this image?

  • Is there a particular item that stands out for you?

  • How may this image connect with your life today?

  • Is there a prayer or response that is bubbling up within you? Respond with gratitude, supplication, wonder, lament, confession, dance, song, or praise.

  • As you close out your time in prayer, open your eyes and gaze again upon the image. Rest in God’s presence as you reflect upon this prayer experience.

  • Consider how you’ll take this into your life.
