Synopsis

These daily inspirations use the ancient prayer of Lectio Divina that originated with the church fathers and was further explored and adopted by the Benedictines and many others. Lectio is a way of allowing the Holy Spirit to illuminate and teach by way of resonating Scripture. It consists of progressive reading and praying with a Scripture passage. Each time the Scripture is read there is an increase in the prayer style to reflect on the thought of a word or phrase that resonated during prayer. I hope that by sharing these Lectio vignettes, you will consider exploring your relationship with God for a few minutes each day using the daily Gospels. Using prayers techniques such as Lectio Divina which include the profound contemplative prayer style that St. John of the Cross and Saint Theresa of Avila teaches can help us contribute to a realistic loving, and peace filled world.
