God’s Writing on my Heart – Lectio Divina

March 25, 2012 By Jean Wise

“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel

after that time,” declares the Lord.

“I will put my law in their minds

and write it on their hearts.

I will be their God,

and they will be my people. Jeremiah 31:33 (NIV)



Write it on their hearts.

Alpha, Omega and Lord of all the letters, write your commandments on my heart.

Take your divine pen with permanent ink, compose a message planted deep within me that I will never lose nor forget.

Scribble Your thoughts and dreams for me.

Engrave Your blueprints.

Inscribe Your name.

You said You will be my God and I will be one of Your people.

I cling to that promise and bare my heart to Your fountain pen.

My heart is empty, blank, void without You.

I long to connect with You through Your words and Your grace.

Once Your ink penetrates me I will be forever changed.

Your word so close inside me I will never forget You again.

A eternal reminder of who I belong to and who I follow.
