This prayer is from Phyllis Tickle's The Divine Hours: Prayers for Autumn and Wintertime. I came across it preparing for our meditation time on Scripture this past Sunday. These Divine Hours prayer books are in three volumes and assist us to use scripture and spiritual prayers from the Book of Common Prayer to commune with our Lord. This particular prayer has special meaning to me and I thought that I would share it with you...
"Blessed Lord, who caused all holy Scriptures to be written for our learning:
Grant me so to hear them, read, mark, learn, and inwardly digest them,
that I may embrace and ever hold fast the blessed hope of everlasting life,
which you have given us in our Savior Jesus Christ;
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen."
May our precious Lord engage our hearts as well as our minds in communion with Him.
