[Running On Empty]

“because you approve of it”.

You have missed the whole meaning of what I have tried my best to offer regarding the true practice (and meaning) of lectio divina.

Because you persist in thinking that lectio divina, as presented in your post here, is not a valid nor authentic way of the ancient form of Scriptural prayer—so be it.

I can’t do any more than I’ve done to indicate to you that we are not talking about the same thing.

So I don’t intend to exert any more time and effort to it.

In the end, all that is hidden will be revealed. I’m confident that the prayerful reading of Scripture in the way of lectio divina will form a deeply committed Christian life —one that is ready to be received by the Lord into His kingdom..

Until He comes again-—adios.

I hope not. But what is going as lectio divina in protestant denominations is wrong. I'm sure there are plenty who do it not according to those instructions and actually think about the Word to apply it to their lives.
