In the time of Advent we will often hear the refrain from Isaiah "Prepare the way of the Lord" (Is. 40:3, cf.

As we begin this Advent season, we can begin this preparation by a tried and true and essential practice of the spiritual life called the Particular Examination of Conscience. ​

There is a natural or perhaps better, a supernatural progression in the spiritual life. One normally begins with lots of vocal prayers, going through many different prayer books and that is a good thing, very pleasing to God.
