2 – Listen carefully to what God is SAYING to you (Rhema)
“I would like to mention the spread of the ancient practice of Lectio Divina or ‘spiritual reading’ of Sacred Scripture. It consists in pouring over a biblical text for some time, reading it and rereading it, as it were, ‘ruminating’ on it…and squeezing from it…all its ‘juice’, so that it may nourish meditation and contemplation and, like water, succeed in irrigating life itself.”
– Pope Benedict XVI
