On Day 9 of our Lenten Lectio Divina journey, we meditate on Luke 4:42-44, where Jesus withdraws to a solitary place, yet the crowds seek Him out. Even as He retreats, His mission remains clear—to proclaim the good news of the kingdom. As we reflect today, may we consider our own need for both solitude and purpose. Where is God calling us to step away and listen? How is He sending us back into the world with His message? Let’s pause, reflect, and respond.
