Matthew 13:16-17

Meditatio (Reflecting)

Amen, I say to you, many prophets and righteous people longed to see what you see but did not see it, and to hear what you hear but did not hear it.

Oratio (Responding)

This is definitely me. I do long to have sat at the lords feet and listened to him talk. In fact that is the promise of heaven, to be with god physically, to see and to hear him directly. But if I am being honest with myself, I am not even sure that I would have recognized god if he was standing right before me, So maybe I have the exact amount to access to god that I need to find Him, and maybe it is not worth thinking about things I cannot have, but instead look to how I can get closer to him right now.

Contemplatio (Contemplating)

Take time to simply remain in the presence of God.

Resolutio (Resolving)

Oh lord help me today to find the grace I need to here and see your work in my life. And help me to grow closer to you in every way of my life.
