Daily Lenten Practice – Reading the Gospel of Mark

Spend Time with Jesus Every Day in Lent

  1. Each day, begin with a brief moment of silence and attend to the presence of God in your life.
  2. Ask the Lord to speak to you through what you are about to read. 
  3. Read the reading from the Gospel of Mark for the day slowly and prayerfully, paying attention to any words, phrases, or verses that stand out to you. What sparks a connection between the text and your life? This – what is sometimes referred to as a “watchword” – might be a promise, a word of wisdom, an admonition, a comfort, or an encouragement.
  4. Read your watchword again, receiving what you read as God’s words especially for you. 
  5. Then, prayerfully reflect on the following questions: What do I sense God may be saying to me? If I were to take these words seriously, how would I respond?
  6. Spend time in silence again for God, asking God to make God’s message clear to you.
  7. Ask God to help you “hear new words, think new thoughts, and live them out.”
