Lectio Divina December 2022

Lectio Divina December 2022

Lord our God,

to those who trust in you

and live the gospel of your Son, you are a dependable rock.

In the storms and tensions of our times, may our faith never waver,

but give us the courage to live as we believe, consistently, radically,

that with your Son we may do your will and live in your love now and forever.

"Lectio divina," a Latin term, means "divine reading" and describes a way of reading the Scriptures whereby we gradually let go of our own agenda and open ourselves to what God wants to say to us. In the 12th century, a Carthusian monk called Guigo, described the stages which he saw as essential to the practice of Lectio divina. There are various ways of practicing Lectio divina either individually or in groups but Guigo's description remains fundamental.

Lectio Divina November 2022

Lectio Divina November 2022
Lord, the meaning of our life is to seek your Word, which came to us in the person of Christ. Make me capable of welcoming what is new in the Gospel of the Beatitudes, so that I may change my life. I would know nothing about you were it not for the light of the words spoken by your Son Jesus, who came to tell us of your marvels. When I am weak, if I go to Him, the Word of God, then I become strong. When I act foolishly, the wisdom of his Gospel restores me to relish God and the kindness of his love. He guides me to the paths of life. When some deformity appears in me, I reflect on his Word and the image of my personality becomes beautiful. When solitude tries to make me dry, my spiritual marriage to him makes my life fruitful. When I discover some sadness or unhappiness in myself, the thought of Him, my only good, opens the way to joy. Therese of the Child Jesus has a saying that sums up the desire for holiness as an intense search for God and a listening to others: «If you are nothing, remember that Jesus is all. You must therefore lose your little nothing into his infinite all and think of nothing else but this uniquely lovable all…»
(Letters, 87, to Marie Guérin).

Lectio Divina June 2022

Lectio Divina June 2022

Lord our God, Your Son Jesus gave himself totally to those He loved - that is, to all.
Give us a share of His unselfish love that we too may learn from experience that there is more joy in giving ourselves than in receiving honors or favors.
May the Spirit make us also so much one that we graciously share with one another our God-given riches and gifts as people. We ask You this through Christ our Lord.

Lectio Divina May 2022

Father, send your Holy Spirit that the fruitless night of our life may be transformed into the radiant dawn that enables us to know your Son Jesus present among us. Let your Spirit breathe on the waters of our sea, as he did at the moment of creation, to open our hearts to the invitation of the Lord‟s love and that we may share in the banquet of his Body and his Word. May your Spirit burn within us, Father, that we may become witnesses of Jesus, like Peter and John and the other disciples, and that we too may go out every day to become fishermen and women for your kingdom. Amen.
