At the end of a full and often fast-paced week, it’s easy to move forward without ever pausing to reflect. This guided Prayer of Examen offers a simple, meaningful way to slow down and notice where God has been present in your life.

Through gentle prompts and quiet moments of reflection, you’ll be guided to review your week with honesty and gratitude—recognizing moments of joy, connection, struggle, and growth. You’ll be invited to notice your emotions, bring your challenges to God’s grace, and listen for what He may be revealing to you.

Rooted in an ancient rhythm of prayer, this short practice helps you shift from autopilot to awareness. It creates space to give thanks, receive grace, and step into the week ahead with intention.

End your week grounded in God’s presence—and begin the next with clarity, peace, and renewed trust. Find a quiet place to listen.
