Father Mark-Mary suggests a simple spiritual exercise that could have a great impact on your life.

He recommends taking a few minutes in the middle of your day to write down five things to thank God for, five ways you’ve failed him, and five things coming up where you could use God’s help.

This “three-by-five Examen prayer” will help you know yourself better and give you direction in doing God’s will.

If it helps, you can even write the fifteen things down on a three-by-five inch index card.
