How to pray for help

jesus i trust in you




Here is how to pray for help:

First, set aside Quiet Time to talk to the Lord.

Second, find a place where you will not be disturbed. Stand, sit, or kneel; it doesn't matter.

Try to put all worries and distractions out of your mind.

Relax your body by listening to your breathing for a few minutes.

Begin by making the Sign of the Cross.

Praise and thank Jesus, then say "Jesus, help me" and get to the problem.

Speak to Jesus honestly. He comes as a healer, not as a judge.

Use prayers from a prayer book, your own words, or pray the Rosary.

Last, your prayers end with Amen, but you can add “Thank You, Lord, for listening to my problems and helping me.”


Thank God for all that He has done for you

Since God is your Lord, Father, Savior and Friend, speak to Him with trust.

You may be too busy talking and don't give God a chance to speak. To know what God wants you to do… be quiet and listen to His voice.

God speaks to you by placing thoughts and feelings into your mind and heart. He changes the way you see people and problems. But you need to listen.
