Scripture is meant to be prayed as well as read. You can open yourself to the inspired words of God and let them address you; you can and must respond to Scripture, so as to enter into a kind of dialogue with God through the medium of the Bible. Such an activity has been going on daily for more than fifteen hundred years in monastic communities all across the world. Praying the Scriptures is an immensely popular and effective way of getting into touch with God, and giving God the opportunity to get into touch with you.
