Scripture for Meditation

Romans 15

NIV  14 I myself am convinced, my brothers and sisters, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with knowledge and competent to instruct one another. 15 Yet I have written you quite boldly on some points to remind you of them again, because of the grace God gave me 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles. He gave me the priestly duty of proclaiming the gospel of God, so that the Gentiles might become an offering acceptable to God, sanctified by the Holy Spirit.

NABRE 14 I myself am convinced about you, my brothers, that you yourselves are full of goodness, filled with all knowledge, and able to admonish one another. 15 But I have written to you rather boldly in some respects to remind you, because of the grace given me by God 16 to be a minister of Christ Jesus to the Gentiles in performing the priestly service of the gospel of God, so that the offering up of the Gentiles may be acceptable, sanctified by the holy Spirit.

Meditation on Scripture:

This scripture contains a beautiful, sweet and succinct reflection on goodness. You are full of goodness. There is something about you that made God be willing to save you from death and sin. At times we struggle with understanding that, with understanding the good we are capable of with the grace of God. dont doubt the ability of God to do amazing wonders in you and through you, as you are sanctified and transformed through God’s love. 

You do not need to wonder or worry. God has seen your heart and will help you improve and change it your whole life long. He gives us the path and the way back to the father. When you ponder the areas of your life you need to correct as you readin scripture, recognize this, all those words are an invitation by God to remind you of the goodness God offers through His commands. As Jesus declared he is the way the truth and the life. You are full of goodness. Put aside any desperate search you have for trying to prove to others you are enough. God’s love clearly demonstrates that. 

With that knowledge be encouraged and lifted up to shed those things that you know to be in opposition to God’s will for you. In joy turn from those things back to the love of God and embrace the goodness he has and can clear out in your heart. 

Meditation of Prayer:

Pray as directed by the Spirit.

Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him.

Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm:

I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials.
