RECOMMENDED Lectio Divina Readings for 2020. Lectio Divina is one of the best methods for reading Sacred Scripture; one of the most important things a Christian can do to improve their spiritual health. Frequent reading of Scripture will allow a person to begin genuinely knowing God. As well as guiding a person to make the changes God is inspiring them to undertake to improve their lives.
It is important to note: reading Scripture is NOT about how much you read every day. Reading the bible slowly and carrying out what it says will be profoundly more beneficial than learning it by memory, and still living the same lifestyle you had when you began.
Lectio Divina is a potent method for correctly reading of Scripture since it provides a structure to prayer. Lectio Divina combines prayer and reading of Scripture while focusing on making changes in one’s life. If used correctly, it will help jumpstart your Christian walk. It will have you running along your Road in only a short while. Additionally, it will be of great consolation for those moments where the battle is so intense that you may have trouble praying in other forms of prayer.
Lectio Divina 2020 Reading Materials
A valuable resource to complement your Lectio Divina exercises is to leverage the Liturgical Calendar of the Catholic Church as the basis for your Lectio Divina Readings. The Catholic Church has outlined for the year the scriptures for reading for any given day. These are usually the ones read at mass during that same day but can also be used for personal reading and prayer.
To help with this, I am listing below the recommended readings for 2020. I also include a table of contents to help facilitate navigation.
