SUNDAY GOSPEL LECTIO DIVINA

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Second Sunday in Ordinary Time - January 14, 2024

    Sometimes God’s call is not direct. Sometimes it is in the subtext in our lives, the subtle happenings that often pass by unnoticed; and if we’re not paying attention we will completely miss what he is saying to us. God’s words are life. They are life-giving, but also life itself. We meet God in Scripture, but when we are in full communion with him we can recognize him speaking through everything around us as well. Find a quiet place and just listen to what God wants to say to you through this Sunday’s Gospel.

    Gospel Lectio Divina for The Epiphany of the Lord -January 7, 2024

    The ride to Bethlehem the magi took was probably quiet. They had nothing but a star to guide them. But a shining light like that is the best we can hope for in a dark world, just as the desert they rode through was dark. Let the way we listen to God today reflect the silence of that desert, where nothing but the star guided the magi. Let your attentiveness to God be singular like that. Focus on the promised savior in your contemplation and he will guide you.

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Feast of the Holy Family of Jesus, Mary and Joseph

    You may have a Nativity scene set up in your house. Imagine for a moment that you are the shepherd, or one of the three kings, or maybe even Mary or Joseph. What is the infant Jesus saying to you in this solemn moment where heaven has met earth in a simple manger? Consider the blessing bestowed upon you to just be there. Jesus wants to move our hearts this season through the mystery of his incarnation and humble birth. In the quiet of winter, now that the hustle and bustle of Christmas day has settled down, take a moment to contemplate what our newborn savior has to say.

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Fourth Sunday of Advent - December 24, 2023

    God speaks not only in the silence but in our everyday lives. In these days leading up to our Savior’s birth, let him show you how he is working in your life. Don’t get so caught up in Christmas planning. Listen closely to the divine whisper in the midst of the hustle and bustle. This is what it means to remember that Christ is the reason for the season.

  • Third Sunday of Advent

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Third Sunday of Advent - December 17, 2023

    Have we met Jesus? Do we have a personal relationship with him? Most of us have been asked these questions by evangelical Christians. The inquiry may often fall on deaf ears or be met with rolling eyes, but perhaps every now and then we should ask ourselves the question, even if we believe we already have met him. Jesus may be in our lives, trying to reach us, in ways we don’t recognize. He may be that subtle truth we keep pushing to the back of our minds but won’t leave us alone. He may be a simple word we keep stumbling across when we read Scripture and in our daily lives. That’s why we do lectio divina, to quiet our hearts and listen to where Christ may be reaching out to us in ways we may not recognize.

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Second Sunday of Advent - December 10, 2023

    The stars that guided the Magi did not speak, but they guided the way to Christ. Listening to God’s will often works the same way. Sometimes we search for some conspicuous sign of God’s will that would indicate which way he wants us to go. All the while he has given us lights to guide the way, like Scripture, Tradition, the Church, and the lives of the saints. How is the Lord guiding you along the Way today?

  • First Sunday of Advent

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the First Sunday of Advent - December 3, 2023

    As St. Paul says, God will keep you firm to the end, irreproachable on the day of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 1:8). God is faithful, and by him you were called to fellowship with his Son. Is God extolling and encouraging you to do something more this Advent? Times have been tough lately. These are the days when our faith can be tested and strengthened the most. As winter approaches, God wants to give you stores of hope to prepare for the tough times ahead. All you need to do is listen.

    Gospel Lectio Divina for the Thirty-third Sunday in Ordinary Time - November 19, 2023

    What is God saying to you in this week’s Gospel? Perhaps he has blessed you with something, but you don’t know how to use it to give him greater glory. Are you waiting for the right moment to share your gifts with the world? God may be calling you to share them with others today. “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 15:16).
