Prayer is a converstion with God. It's taking time in your day to talk to the God who loves you and just wants to spend time with you. It doesn't have to be complicated. It can be as simple as saying 'good morning' to Jesus when you wake up or asking the Holy Spirit be with you throughout the day. The key to prayer is to start small and grow from there. Like any relationship, as you get to know someone you will want to spend more time with that person. As you grow in your friendship with Jesus you will want to spend more time with him. He is waiting, all you have to do is show up.
Check out the video below from Fr. Mike Schmitz, where he shares some great tips for establishing a routine of prayer to get you started on the journey. If you get stuck on what to do during your prayer time, a great place to start is reading the Gospels. Discover Jesus and his love for you through the Word of God. You can also check out the apps below, which are full of guided meditations and Catholic prayers that will help you learn to speak to and listen to Jesus.
