What are you using for your prayer? Daily Scripture? One of the Examens?
The grace to use before each prayer
Ask for the grace to realize that I am not doing as much as I could be doing to build up the body of Christ. Ask also for the grace to respond to God's invitation to be generously and courageously proactive for Christ. You may ask for the grace to recognize new opportunities to respond to God's invitation to participate in the great Christ project.
Sin and the Christ Project: Meditation (Ppl. 9)
Reflect upon how important the Christ project is to God the creator, Jesus the word, and the Holy Spirit. Consider the countless ways that individuals and groups could easily participate actively in the Christ project.
Recognize the tremendous potential across the planet for advancing the Christ project in every area of life and endeavor. Imagine how far advanced the Christ project could be if everyone was already doing what they could to further iys development and successful outcome.

- Reflect on what others are already doing. Consider how the Holy Spirit inspires many people around the world to carry out tasks, individually and in groups, that bring about more love, compassion, healing, and forgiveness. Think about other groups that make advances in the sciences that deepened our knowledge and raised additional questions. There are advances in cancer Research, alternative energies, space exploration, undersea discoveries, ecology how much genetics, agriculture and so forth.
- What are you doing now for the Christ project. This might be the time to go to the image of Christ on the cross where we gaze into his face as we look at him as he is suffering. The face-to-face encounter is to generate a deeply personal realization of the act of Jesus as an expression of God's evolutionary, proactive love. It provides a foundational experience for you of God's love.
- What have I done for Christ? What has Christ done for me? Take time to list out your own talents, skills, wisdom, consciousness, and what you have already done to make a positive difference in the world.
- What am I doing for Christ? What is Christ doing for me? Make a list of things that you are currently doing to keep your body, mind, and spirit developing. What are you doing to better the planet within your sphere of interest?
- What could I be doing for Christ? What does Christ promise to do for me? List some of the things you hope to accomplish for Christ that involve your own betterment as well as the world in general.
- Consider what you are not doing. Note down anything that you might have omitted doing. Bring your reflections to Christ at the foot of the cross. Consider the larger goal, which is God's plan to unify all creation in the cosmic Christ.
