no guilt allowed...
Exit the world- So God, please take my guilt from me now. I feel pretty bad for having not prayed for three whole days...today is day four! and now i am distracted..just like i have been all morning...ugh!!! Please help me focus and free me from Guilt. Help me come into your presence. Please forgive me and cleanse me so I can talk with you... Cleanse...I'm doing a 7 day cleanse soon! Maybe we can talk about that a bit later! It'd be neat to make it spiritual AND physical! Anyway, ya. you can remind me of this grand idea and give me your insight on it... huh? you want to give me your insight now? cool! I'll take it! I guess you also want me to post this on my blog don't you? I can tell by the way I'm writing this! Otherwise I'd just write your words down, but you're having me write only mine.
So this detox then...oh? you mean we'll talk about it later, but still tody? aight! Lets move on in the Examen then!
Reviewing the day- I guess I have to review a FEW days...first of all, thank you for keeping me motivated to go to the gym! that has been awesome! I don't think i've ever been this regular at going, and it's neat that you're helping me that way when I'm trying hard not to ask for stuff...
Thanks also for inspiring me to receive your gift of marriage and a Husband...Thanks for helping me realize how much more seriously He has taken that gift than I have. It's really good to know exactly what to work on right now...
And thanks for my health! for helping me get better! This winter has made me appreciate the gift of health so much more, now that i've experienced having that gift taken from me for a longer period of time.
Pay attention to your emotions- I am much calmer now than I was at the beginning of the prayer. Part of that is probably my A.D.D. drugs kicking in, but part of that I know is peace from your spirit. Thank you Holy spirit for your forgiveness and grace. thanks for coming to meet me here. I know you are all powerful and I don't deserve your blessings...but I know your favour rests on me! Thank you!
