([Location 157](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B075QN44WF&location=157)) - Turn to the Scripture; choose some passage that is simple and fairly practical. Next, come to the Lord. Come quietly and humbly. There, before Him, read a small portion of the passage of Scripture you have opened to. ([Location 168](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B075QN44WF&location=168)) - “Praying the Scripture” is not judged by how much you read but by the way in which you read. ([Location 179](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B075QN44WF&location=179)) - In “praying the Scripture” you are seeking to find the Lord in what you are reading, in the very words themselves. In this path, therefore, the content of the Scripture is the focal point of your attention. Your purpose is to take everything from the passage that unveils the Lord to you. ([Location 193](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B075QN44WF&location=193)) - (You should always remember that you are not doing this to gain some understanding of what you have read; rather, you are reading in order to turn your mind from outward things to the deep parts of your being. You are not there to learn or to read, but you are there to experience the presence of your Lord!) ([Location 208](https://readwise.io/to_kindle?action=open&asin=B075QN44WF&location=208))
