Examen

 

God, come to my assistance.  Lord, make haste to help me.  Come Holy Spirit, fill my heart and enkindle in me the fire of your love. Lord, give me light to see my day, and show me what you want me to see: the times I worked with your grace, and the times I did not.

 

• Gratitude. Review your day and name the gifts and blessings you received. Nothing is too small.

• Review. Look honestly at your thoughts, words, and actions. When were you drawn closer to God? When did you move away?

• Forgiveness. With humility and courage, acknowledge where you fell short. Ask for healing.

• Renewal. Ask God for the graces you need tomorrow, whether strength, peace, courage, or wisdom.

 

Amen.
