One helpful tool for reflective prayer is the Daily Examen developed by St. Ignatious of Loyola. Here is a simplified version to try during this advent season.
- Become aware of God's presence.
- Review the day with gratitude.
- Pay attention to your emotions.
- Look toward tomorrow.
During this advent season, may I adopt a rhythm of watchfulness and prayer, attention and reflection.
Come, Lord Jesus, come.
Come, Lord Jesus, come.
