In the Ignatian framework, which term means 'live it out as I envisioned'?

• A. Acutate
• B. Contemplate
• C. Composition of Place
• D. Lectio Divina

Answer: (A)

In Ignatian practice, the move from inner discernment to living out the decision is described by actuation: to acutate (actuate) means to put into action what you discerned and envisioned, translating prayer and reflection into concrete, daily steps. It’s the bridge from thinking and sensing God’s call to actually living it out. Contemplate refers to a type of prayer where you rest in God’s presence and read Scripture with imagination. Composition of Place is a method for guiding your prayer by placing yourself into a scene. Lectio Divina is a sacred-reading process. These focus on prayer and reflection, not on the execution of the resolution, which is why they don’t fit the given meaning.
