Examine your conscience.

Choose one small, unpleasant task; do it cheerfully and to the best of my ability. Offer the time and unpleasantness to God, through Jesus.

Posted

Give God the first-fruits, as Abel did.

Every time you hear a phone ring, say a prayer for the conversion of sinners, including yourself. It works well if you work in an office.

Be honest, with myself and others, no matter what.

Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet (for those of us who get easily lost in the Rosary...)

Start off right. Give the entire day to God, either through a formal morning offering prayer or something like "Lord, I give you everything this day. Guide me through it and help me recognize you in all moments."

Where there is no love, put love.

Posted

Look for opportunities to be a blessing to other people that cross your path.

Pray the Liturgy of the Hours (or something similar, like [i]Magnificat[/i]) to punctuate your day with faith.

Posted

Getting up early, earlier than you want to, and starting the day in prayer.

Something I haven't been doing well lately.

Posted

Do frequent spiritual communions throughout the day.

Something annoying or bothering you? Look out your window and pick a car. Every car carries a soul to be prayed for.

Other quick tips:

* Say a prayer, or at least make the sign of the cross, when you pass a Catholic Church. It'll deepen your awareness of and respect for the Jesus in the Eucharist.

* If you can't get to daily Mass, read the readings (there are also apps for that ... good for bathroom or bedtime reading).

* Go for a 15-minute walk/run or exercise. Offer it up for your own sanctification or some other intention.

* Sleep and eat properly. Feeling healthy in body makes it so much easier to get healthy in mind and spirit.

I do this with houses as I drive through neighborhoods. Pick a house and pray for the residents.
