John Sullivan Today’s MeditationA Prayer to Redeem Lost Time by St. Teresa of AvilaO my God! Source of all mercy! I acknowledge Your sovereign power. While recalling the wasted years that are past, I believe that You, Lord, can in an instant turn this loss to gain. Miserable as I am, yet I firmly believe that You can do all things. Please restore to me the time lost, giving me Your grace, both now and in the future, that I may appear before You in “wedding garments.”Amen.

It’s very simple, and it’s designed to help us identify our sins and weaknesses so that we can improve and grow stronger in the spiritual life, while providing an excellent ongoing preparation for regular Confession. It consists of taking a few minutes at the end of the day to prayerfully review our actions in the light of God’s commandments, followed by the Act of Contrition. Reflect on the victories and lossesActively reflecting on the high and low points of the day can help you live more intentionally and bring a renewed sense of resolve into the following day.Review your actions, words, and thoughts today. Did you actively guard yourself against temptation? Where did sin creep in?In what moments did you practice virtue and moral courage?Were you attuned to the Holy Spirit’s promptings today? Where did you feel His inspiration?Ask Him for the graces necessary to follow His Will more purposefully tomorrow. Act of ContritionO my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishments, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin. Amen. Practice gratitudeIt is God’s love that has brought you into existence and to this exact moment.
