Which images stand out to you?

Pick two or three images that speak to you the most. Be curious and gracious with yourself. Take a few moments in silence to reflect on your images.

What thoughts and feelings emerge for you? Does God feel near or far? Loving or fearful? Something else?

What do you notice of God’s character or intentions toward you as you spend time with these images?
