1. What is the form of prayer that brings me closest with God? Is there a particular
time of day when I can pray best?
- The forms of prayer I usually cite are the prayers of thanksgiving and
reparation, and I pray without any particular time of day.

2. What are the effects of personal prayer to me?

- Saying a small prayer to get through a difficult time is not unusual. A
plea for help from a higher power is one way to seek and find the
benefits of spirituality. But a connection to something greater than
myself offers more than just hope — it strengthens my emotional
health, too.

3. How can I improve my personal prayer life? In my family?

- One major struggle that prevents me from praying is not knowing what
exactly to pray about. For this reason, I've devised a prayer schedule. I
have designated a certain person or area in my life to pray for on
specific days. I don't always follow this schedule and of course if
anything else comes up I pray for that too, but if I'm ever at a loss for
words it's nice to have a handy prayer schedule I can always go to for
direction.
- Prayer schedules also work when we have an abundance of prayer
requests. It takes pressure off feeling like we need to spend 12 hours
praying for everything at once by conveniently breaking up our prayer
time.
