6 Tips for Establishing a Routine of Prayer
1. Pray About It
We can ask God for the grace to help us develop a habit of prayer.
2. Environment
It helps to have a place to pray. It could be in nature or a place with prayer reminders.
3. Timing
Choosing a time of day or a liturgical season like Lent is a good way to begin a habit of prayer that lasts all year long.
4. Familiar Prayers
Familiar prayers can help give us the focus of the heart that we need to draw closer to God.
5. Networking
It also helps to have a friend or group of friends to pray with, even if it is from a virtual distance.
6. Something New
A new prayer book or a rosary might be what gets you started with a daily routine of prayer.
* Top Tip
The most important thing is to not get discouraged when you miss a day or two of prayer. Start small, find what works for you, and then build on that.
