Devotional Reading T.R.I.P. http://www.dailytext.com/dailytexts/TRIP.php Martin Luther’s prayer pattern has been used at Mount Carmel in the form of an acronym which spells T.R.I.P. to outline the discipline of reading a Bible verse, and then asking the following four questions of that verse: What in that verse am I Thankful for? What does it reveal that I Regret or need to confess? How should I Intercede or what should I pray for? What Purpose for my day does this verse give me?   Thanks, Regret, Intercession, and Purpose, or T.R.I.P.
