The development of the faith goes further especially in the life of each priest when he seeks to deepen God’s Word by lectio divina; this is a true and spiritual path in the process of formation. The first step is about attentive and careful reading of the biblical text (lectio). This followed by meditation (meditatio). The third step is oratio, meaning direct conversation with God. Finally contemplatio, for it is contemplation which helps to maintain soul and heart in the presence of Christ. Contemplation is the aim of lectio divina.
