Answer from a Benedictine Oblate (a Catholic)I am a Benedictine Oblate, this means that I am a layman attached to a monastery. Part of my obligations as a Benedictine is to pray the Divine Office daily, and to meditate each day. St. Benedict taught a beginning form of meditation which is called Lectio Divinia. Lectio is meditating with the Sacred Scriptures. The Divine Office is primarily composed of reciting the psalms from the Book of Psalms and Canticles from throughout The Bible along with the Benedictus (Luke 1:68-79) at Morning Prayer (Lauds for the older crowd) and the Magnificat (Luke 1:45-55) at Evening Prayer (Vespers for those of my generation). In addition we have Mass daily, and the Mass is drawn mostly from the Sacred Scriptures. So, in a very real well, my life, and that of any serious Catholic, is permeated with the Sacred Scriptures..
In addition, as the Church constantly teaches, the Sacred Scriptures are the Word of God (Jesus Christ) in the very Words of God:
from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 1994102 . . . You recall that one and the same Word of God extends throughout Scripture, that it is one and the same Utterance that resounds in the mouths of all the sacred writers, since he who was in the beginning God with God has no need of separate syllables; for he is not subject to time. (St. Augustine, En. in Ps. 103, 4, 1:J.P. Migne, ed., Patrologia Latina {Paris: 1841-1855} 37, 1378; cf. Ps104; Jn 1:1)
104 In Sacred Scripture, the Church constantly finds her nourishment and her strength, for she welcomes it not as a human word, "but as what it really is, hte word of God." (Cf. Dei Verbum 21) "In the sacred books, the Father who is in heaven comes lovingly to meet his children, and talks with them." (Dei Verbum 11)
