Lunchtime Lectio | Week 2, Day 1

Hello Members and Friends of Heritage United Methodist!

Each day during the Disciple’s Heart series, I’ll be sending you the 5-minute “Lunchtime Lectio.”  Lectio Divina means “divine reading,” and it’s the last part of each reading for the day in the Disciple’s Heart daily workbook.

  1. Read the day’s passage of Scripture slowly, listening for the resonance of each word in your soul as you read it.

  2. Read it through again, listening for the word or phrase that grabs your heart more than any other in the passage.

  3. Spend a moment in quiet prayer, simply saying the word or phrase over and over again, asking God to reveal to you why that one stood out.

  4. Finally, share in the comments below which word or phrase stood out to you.  If you feel led to share, include a sentence or two about why God pointed you toward these words in particular.

Sincerely,

Pastor Matt

Today’s Disciple’s Path Lectio Divina reading is Romans 3:22-24.

This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus.
— Romans 3:22-24, NIV

Which word or phrase do you feel led to reflect on today?  Please share in the comment section below!
