What Is Lectio Divina?
- Pope Benedict XVI , September 2005- "I would like in particular to recall and recommend the ancient tradition
of Lectio Divina: the diligent reading of Sacred Scripture accompanied by prayer brings about that intimate dialogue in which the person reading hears God who is speaking, and in praying, responds to him with
trusting openness of heart (cf. Dei Verbum, n.25) If it is effectively promoted, this practice will bring to
the Church I am convinced of it a new spiritual springtime."

Matthew 5:1-12
The Beatitudes
5
When Jesus* saw the crowds, he went up the mountain; and after he sat down,
his disciples came to him.
2 Then he began to speak, and taught them, saying:
3 Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
5 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth.
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
7 Blessed are the merciful, for they will receive mercy.
8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.
10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are you when people revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you
falsely* on my account.
12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the
prophets who were before you.
