Evening prayers
Evening Examen with Psalm 140
Orthodox evenings often include a gentle examen—naming mercies received, confessing failings, and commending loved ones to God before rest.
Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips. Incline not my heart to any evil thing.
I thank You for the blessings of this day: for every kindness shown, every temptation overcome, every breath sustained by Your grace.
Forgive, O Merciful One, the sins of knowledge and ignorance, of word and deed, of impulse and settled habit. Cleanse me with the prayers of Your Mother and all the saints.
Grant peaceful sleep, untroubled by demonic fantasies, that refreshed I may rise to praise You, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Amen.
