Spiritual Directory of St Francis de Sales

Let us learn to meditate after the instructions of St. Francis de Sales.

An important element of meditation is the preparation of the day. This means reflecting on the different events which may possibly occur during the day. This will dispose you to act well and to make right decisions at the proper moment.

If for some reason you are unable to make this mental prayer in the morning, try to make it at some other time during the day.
