LECTIO:
Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all you nations:
extol Him, all you peoples.
For great is His love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever
Praise the Lord.
STUDIUM:
Psalm 117 is the shortest psalm in the book of Psalms. It shows confidence in God's love for us. Paul quotes from this psalm in Romans 15: 11 to show that God's salvation is for all, not just Jews.
MEDITATIO:
This short thought says everything. God loves everyone, forever, no matter how sinful we are.
ORATIO:
I owe everything to You. How can I not love Someone whom loves me so much. Help me never to forget that, my Beloved.
CONTEMPLATIO:
After all the evil humankind perpetrates, God still loves us. This is beyond my comprehension; thank God He is God and I am not.
RESOLUTIO:
I will strive to live my life in praise to God, to whom I owe everything.
