We suggest that today you review the prayer of the past week. If you have been keeping a journal of what happened in your prayer then read over the last six days.
What has moved you most?
Notice how God has spoken to you about how he sees your life and your deeper self.
Pray again with the material that has been most meaningful for you this week and let it deepen. You may like to simplify it.
Pick up again any conversations with God that feel unfinished.
This is not a day off prayer because there is no new material - far from it.
It is perhaps a day to spend longer preparing for prayer.
In particular savour the moments where there has been grace or consolation.
Relive the joyful moments.
Seeing with God ́s eyes:
your life and your deeper self,
the person behind all the activity,
a person made in
God’s image
Few souls understand what God would accomplish in them if they were to abandon themselves unreservedly to him and if they were to allow his grace to mould them accordingly.”
St. Ignatius Loyola
