Daily Scripture Reflection & Prayer: October 22,2026

LECTIO - Read Scripture Text:   Ephesians 3:14-21

I kneel before the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is names, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with mighty by His Spirit in the inner self, that Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith, and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and depth and height, and to know the love of Christ that surpasses all knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do far more than we ask or imagine, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the Church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.

MEDITATIO - Meditate on text, allow the LORD to touch us with His Word:

Heavenly Father, I come before You with all humility, and ask that You strengthen me with your power through the Spirit for this journey and tenderize my inner being so I might be more hospitable to your beloved Son, Jesus Christ. May my heart become His home. May I remain in Him as I invite Him to remain in me. Bless me with graces, please I pray, that surpass all expectations. Fill me, LORD, with your love.
