This page is like a prayer book. The prayers are listed below. Here, you may find a prayer that speaks to your need.

For many people prayer means “talking to God.” In having a conversation, they use words that come from their own heart. And this is pleasing to God.

On other occasions our thoughts and feelings are more fully expressed by saying prayers written by others. And this is also pleasing to God.

Say the prayer that best addresses your individual need. Allow the wisdom contained in the prayer to penetrate your inner self. If you do this you will find great peace — even with turmoil around you and troubles in your life.

Most people will experience a major crisis in their life. What is important is how you handle a crisis. Do not become depressed and retreat within yourself. Do not attempt to carry your worries and difficulties by yourself. The weight is too much.

Oh! What peace we often forfeit,
Oh what needless pain we bear!
All because we do not carry
Everything to God in prayer.

(Joseph Scriven)
