Lectio - Mk 8.11-13

Meditatio:”Then he left them, got into the boat again, and went off to the other side.” Mk 8.13

Oratio: “O God, how often we offend you with our obstinacy.

I remember Jesus was deeply grieved by the argumentative attitude of the Pharisees who in their obstinacy refused to see his miracles as heavenly signs of His authority.

Grant that I may be docile to the teachings of the church for you have given us the Pope as a clear sign of your teaching authority.

I ask this of you, who lives and reigns with Jesus and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever. Amen.”

Contemplatio – Keep silence and remain in recollection for a few minutes.

Note: Tomorrow’s selection is from Mk 8.14-21
