Saturday Examen
Saturday Examen
Take some time today to reflect over the past week and look for "God Moments." Where have you seen God this week? How have you responded to His love and call this week?
You may choose to pray the following prayer in silence before God, waiting and listening for His voice.
1. God, I believe at this moment I am in your presence, and you are loving me.
2. God, you know my needs better than I know them. Give me your light and help to see how you have been with me throughout this week and will be forever with me.
3. God, help me be grateful for the moments when people have both affirmed me and challenged me. Help me to see how I have responded, and whether I have been kind to others and open to growth.
4. God, forgive me for when I have not done my best or treated others well. Encourage me and change my heart to always seek your will. Teach me to lay down my will for yours.
5. Conclude with the Lord’s Prayer
Reflect on the Grace Discipleship Plan
1. How did God meet you in each of these areas of discipleship this week?
2. What is your intention for next week? Where will you schedule time with God?
3. Thank God for His goodness and mercy.

The Lord's Prayer
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come; thy will be done; on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
