The prayer before a crucifix is: “Behold, O good and sweetest Jesus, I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight…” asking for grace and mercy.

The purpose of meditation is to reflect on spiritual truths, stir the heart to love God, and strengthen the will to do good.
Mental prayer is silent conversation with God, lifting the mind and heart to Him without set words.
Vocal prayer is prayer expressed in words, either aloud or silently, such as the Our Father or Hail Mary.
Meditation involves active reflection on spiritual truths, while contemplation is a passive, loving gaze upon God granted by His grace.
The examen of conscience is a daily review of our thoughts, words, and deeds to see where we have pleased or offended God.
We make an examen of conscience by thanking God for His blessings, asking light to see our faults, examining our day, expressing sorrow, and resolving to do better.
