Thomistic prayer during lent

3/26/2018

I share a final prayer form to strengthen your spiritual life.  It is known as Thomistic prayer, named after St. Thomas Aquinas of the 13th century.  This prayer type examines a scripture to be enlightened by God by asking basic questions of what, why, how, who, where, when, and with what.  For instance, Philippians 2:4-8 is a great text to consider as we approach Good Friday.  What is the attitude of Christ?  What do I need to empty in my life?  How do I live as a servant to those with whom I live, work and associate?  What changes do I need to make in my life?  Where have I lived these words?  Recite the essence of these words throughout the day as a prayer. 

The season of Lent comes to a close on Easter Sunday, April 1.  I encourage you to attend the church of your choice to celebrate the Risen Lord!  At First United Methodist Church in Kosse, we celebrate Holy Week with special services on Palm/Passion Sunday, Maundy Thursday and Good Friday.  At the Maundy Thursday service, we remember Jesus' celebration of the Last Supper with his disciples.  For the Good Friday service this year, interactive prayer stations will be provided to remember Jesus' last days with offerings of prayer.
