Examination of
Conscience
Mother Foundress said that [we
should never] forget that the only things that matter here on earth are the
things that will lead us to heaven, and that all events, whether sad or joyful,
must serve to bring us there.
[Pause]
As another day ends, let us yet
again thank God for all His wondrous blessings: the restful night and the
beautiful morning that ensued; the Eucharist we partake and His enriching
Words; our modular class this day and the new friends that we met.
Let us praise and thank the Lord
for all these and His many other gifts today.
Let us thank Him for His faithful
love and guidance.
[Pause]
Let us likewise humbly accept our
failings of this day: our uncharitable thoughts, words and actions towards
ourselves and our neighbour. Let us ask the Lord for pardon for our
shortcomings in responding to His graces and for our lack of compassion and
gratitude.
[Pause]
Trusting in the Lord’s
immeasurable mercy and forgiveness, let us pray:
Lord Jesus, you opened the eyes of the blind, healed the sick, forgave
the sinful woman, and after Peter’s denial confirmed him in your love.
Listen to my prayer: forgive all my sins, renew your love in my heart,
help me to live in perfect unity with my fellow Christians that I may proclaim
your saving power to all the world.
