10.31.15

Lectio: Mt 4. 1-12                                            

Meditatio: “He began teaching them, ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven’.” Mt 2-3                       
                                                            
Oratio: O God, Your Son at the beginning of His public ministry proclaimed the Beatitudes, the ways of blessedness, the Magna Carta of Christian living. Pray to have the right attitude to things that are hard for that is the essence of the Beatitudes and the way to their blessings that follow to those who do.
                                                    
I ask this and all things in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with You
and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever.

Contemplatio: spend some time in silence & meditate on the selected passage and hear what  God speaks to you,

Operation: reflect: "He....teaching...Blessed are”; Jesus gave us the Beatitudes and held out to us many blessings for having the right attitude. Seek the grace to live the Beatitudes which leads to a fulling life in the now and t he hereafter
