Welcome to the Saturday Examen.
Take a few moments today to see the past week with the Lord’s guidance.
Prepare yourself for prayer by focussing on your breath…take a few deep breaths in…and then a few releasing breaths out. Notice how the change in breath brings stillness and an awareness of God’s presence…
Cast your mind back over the week… where have you experienced a community of faith, a call to witness, a generosity of Spirit?
Is there a particular moment God is drawing you to remember? Notice what rises to the surface naturally… allow the moment to reveal itself …
Do you notice any tensions, lack of understanding or frustration? Allow these moments to be witnessed…
Where, in the prayer journey of the week, have you found an opening of the heart or sense of challenge, revelation or relationship? Is there something that may lead you through this time? Again, notice what arises naturally…
Looking forward, what would you like to ask God for, to find movement in your prayer life and practice?
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
