More Helps to Pray

Suppose that you begin your mental prayer - ­you remember God is present; you ask His help­and then you can't seem to think of anything in particular to say.

What then?

That is what the daily "Mental Prayer" posts are for. Each day's "meditation" suggests things it might be good for you to talk over with God­ - or at least to think over, in God's presence - ­on that day.

The words in the posts are to help you get started. The real praying, of course, is always your own talking with God: your own thinking, speaking, loving, being sorry, asking help - or just listening - as you kneel before Him.
