Year In Review: Thanksliving

Year in Review – Thanksliving

Read Psalm 105:1-11.

What stands out to you in this passage?

What might God be saying to you?

If you have time, finish with a Year in Review prayer exercise. (Found at here) Pens and paper may help!

• First, give thanks to God for all the many blessings received over the past year. Go through each month, dwelling upon the good and thanking God for it.

• Second, ask for the grace to know your sins and failings and renounce them. Go through each month and do this.

• Third, review your year again, month-by-month, and recognize your feelings, thoughts and movements of the heart. There will be certain people and events that strike a cord (for good or for ill). Bring those people or events to God and ask Him why they stand out. Ask God for the grace to see His providence in all things. Nothing happens by chance.

• Fourth, ask pardon of God for any sins. Also, do not only ask God for forgiveness, but also ask God for the grace to forgive yourself.

• Fifth, look forward to the next year and ask God for the grace to amend your life.
