Praying Practices: Building the Habit

Book of Common Prayer page 814

Spontaneous prayer is often best: what are you praying for and why?

Take time to be aware of God’s Presence

Acknowledge your faults and failings with God

Give thanks for blessings in your life

And then ask God to help you seek – for yourself and for others

Prayer candles

Posture for prayer: there is no right way!

Kneeling? Hands folded? Walking? Labyrinth?

Listen: prayer is not only words

“Prayer is God’s invitation to us to be willing partners in the great dance of bringing a world into being that reflects something of God’s character.” ~Marjorie Hewitt Suchocki.
