Readings

• When we retire at night, we constructively review our day.

Reading 1 of 8Online reading edition

• Were we resentful, selfish, dishonest or afraid? Do we owe an apology?

• Have we kept something to ourselves which should be discussed with another person at once?

• Were we kind and loving toward all?

• What could we have done better?

• Were we thinking of ourselves most of the time? Or were we thinking of what we could do for others, of what we could pack into the stream of life?

• But we must be careful not to drift into worry, remorse or morbid reflection, for that would diminish our usefulness to others.

• After making our review we ask God's forgiveness and inquire what corrective measures should be taken.
