RESPONDING TO THE PSALMS – October 2023
A project of the Spirituality Committee of the Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales
“The Psalms clearly express the great fundamental feelings, both natural and spiritual where we find the utterance of adoration, longing for God, gratitude, supplication, awe, remorse, love, readiness for sacrifice, courage in suffering, faith, confidence and so on.”
Romano Guardini Vom Geist der Liturgie 1918 The Spirit of the Liturgy Herder and Herder 2016 [p.27]
We offer the Sunday Responsorial Psalm as a focus for prayer and reflection during the week ahead for yourself or share with others. You could note your own thoughts as a possible personal journal.
