Father Edward Looney, a member of the Mariological Society of America and writer of the devotional book “A Rosary Litany,” offered an examination of conscience based on the Annunciation that you can do every day before going to sleep.
“As a priest, I pray every night the Compline of the Liturgy of the Hours, a liturgical prayer prayed by the ordained, consecrated and some lay faithful,” and which includes performing an examination of conscience, said Father Looney, in a published article in ChurchPop.
The priest said that it is common to associate this practice with only one aspect, “the negative: our sins and faults,” since “most people are familiar with an examination of conscience in the context of preparation for the sacrament of Reconciliation.” ”. However, doing it daily is highly recommended for the life of every Christian.
