The Third Sunday of Ordinary Time marks the celebration of Bible Sunday in the Diocese of Hamilton. Prayer cards & bookmarks are available for everyone this weekend to help you on your prayerful journey. Our celebration of Bible Sunday is a call to listen to how #TheBibleSpeaks in our hearts & within our communities of faith.
Try this:
Begin with a prayer to the Holy Spirit.
Read through the passage. Digest the words. Get a sense of the phrases. Allow the Word to seep more deeply into your consciousness.
Read the passage again, section by section. What emotions are evoked by the Word? How does this Word speak to me of God & how does it impact my life?
Conclude with a brief prayer of thanksgiving to the Holy Spirit.
