Prayerful text reflection
Devotional reading is the practice of reading religious or spiritual texts for personal reflection and growth rather than academic study.
The term often refers to the material itself—short passages from scripture, prayers, or meditations designed for daily use: She starts each morning with devotional reading.
Many traditions publish devotional guides with dated entries for each day of the year.
