    Begin with a short morning offering and one concrete intention.

    Scripture

    Pray a morning offering before checking messages.

  2. Step 2

    Let a short Scripture phrase remain with you through the day.

    Scripture

    Luke 2:19

    Practice

    Write one Gospel phrase and return to it at midday.

  3. Step 3

    Make one short return to God in the middle of the day.

    Scripture

    1 Thessalonians 5:17

    Practice

    Pray one Our Father or Angelus-style pause at midday.

  4. Step 4

    End the day by noticing grace, asking pardon, and entrusting tomorrow.

    Scripture

    Lamentations 3:22-23

    Practice

    Name one grace, one place for repentance, and one hope for tomorrow.
