Fastetiden 2022: Ikke av brød alene (2)

Lord, inspire me to read your Scriptures 
and to meditate upon them day and night. 
I beg you to give me real understanding
of what I read,
that I in turn may put its precepts into practice. 
Yet, I know that understanding 
and good intentions are worthless,
unless rooted in your graceful love. 
So I ask that the words of Scripture 
may also be not just signs on a page, 
but channels of grace into my heart.
Amen.

(Origenes)
