According to the Cambridge Dictionary, “dwell” means “to live in a place or in a particular way.” It us a verb, which denotes action. So, if Christ’s Word dwells in me, it implies that his Word lives in me, perhaps in a particular way. Might that way influence how I think or act? Might it influence how I respond to others? Might it enable me to offer God’s grace to others?
Father, as I read and contemplate your Word, I pray that it will reside in my heart and influence my thoughts and actions to more closely resemble yours.
