On that day you will ask in my name, and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father for you. For the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have come to believe that I came from God.
John 16: 26-27
☧
Four steps of Lectio Divina
Latin for "Divine Reading"
Lectio (Read)
What does the text say? A commentary might help you understand the context of the passage.
Meditate
What does the text say to me and in my life? What is God saying to me or calling me to understand?
Prayer
What do I say to God in response? (Praise, petitions and requests for grace, thanks)
Contemplate
What do I do? Is there some way God is calling me to change?
☩
