Lectio Divina
Phillipians 2:1-5
Lectio: Read the following passage slowly and simply try to savor the words, letting them sink in. Listen for a nudge. What words or images is God drawing you towards?
If there is any encouragement in Christ, any solace in love, any participation in the Spirit, any compassion and mercy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, with the same love, united in heart, thinking one thing.
Do nothing out of selfishness or out of vainglory; rather, humbly regard others as more important than yourselves, each looking out not for his own interests, but also for those of others.
Have in you the same attitude that is also in Christ Jesus.
Meditatio: Re-read the passage, lintering over the word or phrase that caught your attention. What does it bring to your mind? What kind of feeling does this passage evoke in you? Invite God to reveal how this passage might speak to your life.
Oratio: Allow the scripture to lead you into a prayer response. Let God reveal how this passage might be guiding you to respond.
Contemplatio: Simply be still with these words and open to anything that the Spirit might stir inside you. Enjoy the moment ith God and know that you are loved.
