Repost of Episode 61

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re using this prayer by St. Catherine of Siena:

You, God, are a fire that always burns without consuming. You are a fire consuming in its heat every compartment of the soul’s self-absorbed love.  You are a fire lifting all chill and giving all light. In your light you show me your truth. You’re the light that outshines every light.

You, God, give the mind’s eye your divine light so completely and excellently, you bring lucidity even to the light of faith. In that faith, I see my soul has life, and in that light, I receive you who are light itself.

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re using this prayer by St. Gertrude the Great:

Be my honor, Lord,
my joy,
my beauty,
my consolation in sorrow,
my counsel in uncertainty,
my defense in everything unfair,
my patience in problems,
my abundance in poverty,
my food in fasting,
my sleep in vigilance,
and my therapy in weakness.

Repost of Episode 58

In this episode of the guided lectio divina podcast, we’re using this prayer by St. Patrick:

Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in the eye that sees me,
Christ in the ear that hears me.
I arise today
through the mighty strength
of the Lord of creation.

Repost of Episode 56

This episode of the guided lectio divina podcast is the first in a new series on Prayers of the Saints.  Today we’re using this prayer by St. Francis of Assisi:

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love,
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith,
Where there is despair, hope,
Where there is darkness, light,
Where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console, not so much to be understood as to understand, not so much to be loved, as to love; for it is in giving that we receive, it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in dying that we awake to eternal life.
