Going Deeper: Lectio Divina
The work of reading and praying with Sacred Scripture is one of the primary methods of meditation that the Catechism recommends for the Christian to go deeper in the life of prayer. Actio, the fifth step, is how we actualize the fruits of our meditation in action; that is, in our life. Actio reflects the intimacy that disciples grow in as they are transformed by the life of God and is the necessary response to the inward movement of the Holy Spirit.
