Meaning of prayer :

 

The practice of turning our minds and hearts to God. God wants us to experience a special relationship with him. For that to happen we must spend time with our minds and hearts open to God. Prayer is done with the Christian community (for example, at Mass), or with the family (for example, grace before and after meals), or individually (morning or night time personal prayer). Christians are asked to pray often everyday. Prayer can be in the form of praising God for all the blessings we see, petitioning God for help with something important, interceding with God for the needs of others, or adoring God for God’s own self. In worship Christian prayer is always directed to the Father, through the Son Jesus, in and with the Holy Spirit, in order to bring out the Trinitarian aspect of our relationship with God.
