5. PROMISE
Looking ahead
Think about what action you could now take in the light of your reading and reflection. Decide what to do and write it down in your notebook as a promise to God.
What you’ve put is very personal to you. The important thing is that we offer our thanks to God “not only with our lips, but in our lives”. You may wish to end by asking God to help you keep your promise.
