Here’s a simple guide to get you started:

1. Choose a Topic:

   • Select a specific topic, such as love, grace, or forgiveness.
   • Write your chosen topic at the center of a piece of paper.

   • Write these verses on separate index cards or sticky notes.

3. Create Your Map:

   • Arrange the verse cards around your central topic.
   • Connect related verses with lines or arrows.
   • Use different colors to highlight different themes or subtopics.

4. Reflect and Meditate:

   • Take time to reflect on the connections you’ve made.
   • Meditate on the truths revealed through your verse map.
   • Journal your insights and reflections.
