This Christian mindfulness practice came from someone else, but I have no idea who. That person created a list of profound questions for daily reflection or examen. Although I neglected to note the author back then, I’ve found answering these questions bring lots of insight.

• Where in this day did I feel the presence of God working in my life and in the world?
• What in this day seemed like it was a part of my leading?
• What made me believe that?
• How does that leading fit into my personal and spiritual life?
• What did I do today to feed my spirit or move me ahead on my spiritual journey?

Let’s try using these questions for discernment in quiet time. They are also great for journaling.
