Suggested daily Lectio divina - Week of September 20, 2015

September 20: Mark 8: 31-38
September 21 -  The Feast of St. Matthew, Apostle & Evangelist - 1 Peter 1: 13 - 25

God of love and justice, you make known your ways in the lives of your saints.  Your Son called Matthew known as Levi, a loathed tax collector and swindler, to be His apostle and evangelist.  As with Matthew, free us from all greed and selfish love that we may follow in the steps of Jesus Christ our Lord now and always.  AMEN.
