Saturday 6 June 2026 - A deeper awareness
Saturday 6 June 2026
Welcome to the Saturday Examen. This Saturday prayer each week invites you to look back over the last seven days. The purpose is to come to a deeper awareness of how God has been working in and with you, in and with the world, in this past week. Start today’s prayer, then, by asking God to be able to recognise his presence in these days more fully. You might begin by singling out one thing, large or small, that you want to thank God for. Take a moment to express your thanks to God for that before we continue. Now let the days of the past week unfold again before your mind’s eye and see what you notice. Where have you experienced life, and light, and energy? Where have you been most fully yourself, most fully alive? Now notice how you’ve responded to God in these moments, moments when God’s presence is more than usually clear. Have you valued them, used them well? Have you perhaps at times been oblivious of them, or even misused the gifts that God has given to you? Whatever you see here, take a few moments to speak to God about it. Lastly, look forward to the week ahead. In the light of this time of prayer, what gift or gifts from God do you particularly need in the next few days? In these final moments of prayer, ask God for whatever it is that you need from him today. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be World without end Amen
