A habit of honest reflection
Discipleship Ministries publishes a set of self-examination questions associated with John Wesley. That resource is linked below for readers who want its wording and context. This worksheet has six new prompts of its own. It does not reproduce or replace that list.
Set aside a few unhurried minutes. You can work through every prompt or stay with the one that gives you something useful to consider. The aim is attention and a practical response, not a perfectly completed form.
Begin with an actual moment
An ordinary conversation, a choice about time or an unexpected kindness can give reflection a concrete starting point. Describe only what you need to remember. You can leave names and another person’s private circumstances out of your answer.
The prompts move through gratitude, relationships, time and resources, Scripture or prayer, practical care and the day ahead. They leave room for your own words rather than asking you to award yourself a spiritual mark.
Choose a next step you can recognise
If you notice something you would like to change, make the next step small enough to act on. You might return to a conversation kindly, set aside time to read, or offer practical help. Bring that intention into prayer in your own words.
For a group setting, agree what is private before inviting people to share. No one needs to display a personal worksheet to take part. Use your church’s pastoral arrangements for matters that need a conversation rather than a text box.
Keep or clear your own words
Typing is optional. Print a blank sheet if you prefer to reflect on paper. If you do write here, your answers stay in this page’s memory; they are not stored in a journal or sent to a service.
Print, copy or download only if you want to keep the answers yourself. Clear all answers empties the worksheet. Reloading or leaving also clears your entries, so print or download first if you want to keep them.
Questions
Are these Wesley’s original questions?
No. These are six original prompts for personal reflection in a Wesleyan spirit. The Discipleship Ministries source below has its own question list.
Can I use it without typing private answers?
Yes. Print the blank sheet or reflect away from the screen. Every answer is optional.
Where are my answers saved?
They are not saved. They stay only in this page’s memory until you clear them, reload or leave. Your own printout or downloaded file is yours to manage.
Is this a feature in the PrayLock iPhone app?
This is a separate web tool. PrayLock puts a prayer before the iPhone apps you choose and requires a Pro subscription.
