The Way, The Truth, The Life
Welcome to DAY 35 of the Lent Lectio Divina series
Throughout these 6 weeks we will pause each day for a few moments to
Read a passage of scripture, Reflect on what God is saying to us through it, and Ask the Holy Spirit to help us as we step into the invitation this passage offers us
Before we begin this reading, let’s take a moment to pause, to quiet our mind, and to reflect on God’s presence with us right now
This week’s breath prayer comes from Psalm 46:10-11
“The LORD says, ‘Be still, and know that I am God… Selah’”
It’s believed the Hebrew word “Selah” was a musical instruction to pause and reflect on a truth which had just been spoken. As we breathe this prayer let us simplify it each time on the in breath and then reflect on the outbreath with “Selah”
As you breathe in Pray
“Be still and know that I am God”
And breathe out
“Selah”
As you breathe in Pray
“Be still and know that I AM”
And breathe out
“Selah”

As you breathe in Pray

Today’s Bible Reading comes from John 14:6-14
As we read this passage now, be listening for one word or phrase the Holy Spirit highlights to you.
START
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
9 Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you I do not speak on my own authority. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work. 11 Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves. 12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13 And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
What is one word or phrase the Holy Spirit impressed on you in that reading?
Take a moment to MEDITATE on this.
As we move into our second reading, consider how this passage relates to a current area of your life
RE-READ PASSAGE 2ND TIME
What specific situation in your life does this passage relate to today?

As we move into our final reading, consider what God is saying to you personally today from this passage.
RE-READ PASSAGE 3RD TIME
What is Christ’s personal invitation to you from this passage today?
Take a moment now to CONTEMPLATE this
Let us take this time now into the coming day as we pray
That God will bless you and protect you;
That God’s face will radiate with joy because of you;
That God will be gracious to you, show you his favour towards you,
and give you his peace.’
Amen
