Re-orientation: Prayer of Examen (2)

Thank you, Lord, for all the blessings of this day. I name them … May I never take them for granted.

Thankfulness is the most fitting response to re-orientation. The Prayer of Examen always begins with thankfulness. Review the day and name the blessings, from the most significant and obvious to the more common and ordinary. An attitude of gratitude, practised often enough, helps us find God in all things and can transform the way we look at our life and at other people. Psychologists have shown a direct link between our level of gratitude and our joy – a link long understood by the biblical writers.
