Martha & Mary- Praying though Art

Published: July 16, 2022

Sunday’s Gospel (17 July) is the lovely story of Martha and Mary and their visitor Jesus.  Why not take a little time today and tomorrow and indeed every day to reflect on Vermeer scene of the visit.  Praying through Art is known as Visio Divina. It is related to the prayer form Lectio Divina (divine reading), but instead of Scripture, this form of prayer uses visual elements to help set your mind on prayer.  It allows God to speak into your heart through the image.
