Praying with Scripture

For Pentecost, share with us a journey through art and history

February 2, Feast of the Presentation to the Lord

“Do good, seek justice.” (Isaiah 1:17)

Stop, read, imagine the scene, search for the deep meaning of the story, be surprised, sometimes protest! And thus share with God my joys and doubts in a true dialogue.

It is possible to flow into another's prayer. We suggest that you do so with the author of Psalm 139, who knows that we can talk to God and tell him everything that is on our hearts. Before praying with this psalm, you can do like him: talk to God spontaneously. God asks you: "How are you? "and you answer him. This familiarity with God, this believer experiences it. He knows that God is the one to whom you can talk, to whom you can confide, whom you can question and even to whom you can reproach! Familiarity with God to whom one says "you", then reading this psalm, feeling how you can make it your own or not. How does it reach you? What feelings does it provoke in you?
