You're going to be. Welcome to the Saturday Examine. This week we are near the center of the Lenten season.

Lent is a focused time of repentance, of turning more fully towards God and God's love.

Notice as this prayer starts, one place where you have experienced God's love this week.

And thank God for it. You're not going to be here. Oh, Oh, You're going to be. It's a good working assumption that God has shown you his love much more often than just once this week.

Ask for the gift of a clearer sight of where God has been most powerfully at work since last weekend. I'm going to be here. Oh, And then. You're not going to be here. Now look back at the week in the light of that.

Don't strain or censor what comes to mind.

Simply recall different places and times,

where as you can now see,

God has been offering you his gifts. Oh, You're going to be. Oh, Notice too how you've responded to God and God's gifts this week.

Thank him for the gifts you've used well.

You might want to apologize for where you've overlooked or misused other gifts. You're going to be here. Oh, You're going to be. Finally, look towards the days ahead.

Where do you expect to be?

And what do you expect to be doing?

Ask God for whatever you need to respond well to these days ahead and to see the signs

of God's continuing love of you. I'm going to be. Oh, you return it. Everything is yours. Do with it what you will. Give me only your love and your grace.

That is enough for me.

Amen. You're going to be here. Oh, you're. You're going to see.
