The Daily Examen

 Pausing each evening for the Daily Examen helps us keep our hearts close to the Holy One by creating a sacred space to notice where God has been present throughout the day. In this quiet reflection, we become aware of the moments that stirred gratitude or unease, love or resistance — signs that reveal both our call and our obstacles to responding with love. The Examen invites us to listen for the gentle movements of the Spirit, guiding us to grow in awareness, humility, and freedom. Over time, this simple daily pause shapes the heart into a place of deeper discernment, gratitude, and trust in God’s continual companionship.
