A Path Through Advent with St Benedict (13)

WEEK TWO
FRIDAY

Isaiah 48: 17-19
Matthew 11:16-19

‘If only you had been alert to my commandments,
your happiness would have been like a river,
your integrity like the waves of the see.’ (Is 48)

‘But as we progress in this way of life and in faith, we shall run on the path of God’s commandments, our hearts overflowing with the inexpressible delight of love.’ (Prologue, Rule of St Benedict)

Use the Scripture texts for your prayer.

Reflect on the two quotations. How is God speaking to you through these texts?
