Pray where you are. God is present everywhere and ready to listen.
Pray when possible in a quiet spot where you can be alone. It is well to fix your mind deliberately on God, apart from confusing distractions.
Pray to God simply and naturally as to a friend. Tell Him what is on your mind.
Pray remembering the good things God has done for you. Reckon up your blessings from time to time and give thanks for them.
Pray for God’s forgiveness for the unworthy things that you may have done. He is near to a humble and contrite heart.
Pray for the things that you need, especially those that will make your life finer and more Christ like.
Pray for others, remembering the situations they confront and the help they need.
Pray above everything else, that God’s will may be done in you. His purposes are deeper and wiser than anything you can imagine.
Pray and then start answering your own prayer.
--Deane Edwards
