    • An Outline of the Examen

       

      This outline is based on Ignatius’ presentation of the examen in the Spiritual Exercises (no. 43).  

       

      Transition: I become aware of the love with which God looks upon me as I begin this examen.

       

      Step One: Gratitude. I note the gifts that God’s love has given me this day, and I give thanks to God for them,

       

      Step Two: Petition. I ask God for an insight and a strength that will make this examen a work of grace, fruitful beyond my human capacity alone,

       

      Step Three:  Review. With my God, I review the day.  I look for the stirrings in my heart and the thoughts that God has given me this day.  I look also for those that have not been of God.  I review my choices in response to both, and throughout the day in general.

       

      Step Four: Forgiveness. I ask for the healing touch of the forgiving God who, with love and respect for me, removes my heart’s burdens.

       

      Step Five: Renewal. I look to the following day and, with God, plan concretely how to live it in accord with God’s loving desire for my life.

       

      Transition: Aware of God’s presence with me, I prayerfully conclude the Examen.

    • Esquema del Examen

       

      Este esquema se basa en la presentación del examen que Ignacio hizo en los Ejercicios Espirituales (n.º 43).

       

      Transición: Tomo conciencia del amor con el que Dios me mira al comenzar este examen.

       

      Primer paso: Gratitud. Tomo nota de los dones que el amor de Dios me ha dado este día y le doy gracias por ellos.

       

      Segundo paso: Petición. Pido a Dios una comprensión y una fuerza que hagan de este examen una obra de gracia, fructífera más allá de mi capacidad humana.

       

      Tercer paso: Revisión. Con mi Dios, repaso el día. Busco las inquietudes de mi corazón y los pensamientos que Dios me ha dado este día. También busco aquellos que no han sido de Dios. Repaso mis decisiones en respuesta a ambos, y a lo largo del día en general.

       

      Cuarto paso: Perdón. Pido el toque sanador del Dios perdonador que, con amor y respeto por mí, libera las cargas de mi corazón.

       

      Paso cinco: Renovación. Miro hacia el día siguiente y, con Dios, planifico concretamente cómo vivirlo según su amoroso deseo para mi vida.

       

      Transición: Consciente de la presencia de Dios en mi, concluyo el Examen en oración.
