Before you begin, find a quiet place where you feel comfortable.
HINT:
Once you’re ready, tap on the right side to continue.
Keep in mind that God wants to hear from you. You can talk to Him like a friend.
Ok, let’s begin a prayer.
A good way to start is to address God by name.
You can try
“Dear God,”
“Dear Heavenly Father,”
or just ”God.”
Begin your conversation by telling God what you’re grateful for.
FOR EXAMPLE:
Think about your family, job, hobbies, food, or health.
Great! Now try asking Him a few things. You can ask for help, direction, or comfort.
Now tell Him anything else that’s in your heart that we have missed. It can be whatever you’d like.
Okay, once you’ve said everything you’d like to say, you can end your prayer by saying:
In the name of Jesus Christ, amen.
WHY WE END PRAYERS THIS WAY
Many people use Jesus’s name to end a prayer out of respect.
“Amen” is also a traditional way to end prayers. When you say it in answer to another person’s prayer, it means, “That is my prayer too.”
Take a moment to think quietly, and pay close attention to your thoughts. This is often how God speaks to us.
Congratulations! You said a prayer.
Remember, you can always pray any time you feel like it. God is always happy to hear from His children.
