1. Remember: your work and your struggles are not unholy. Pray and God will come to you just as you are.
2. Pray always, but schedule special times too. The spirit, like the body, needs formal exercise.
3. If you want something, ask yourself. "Do I want what God wants?" God wants your true good.
4. Bring your anger to prayer. Hot metal can be molded.
5. Pray when you are worried. Prayer puts everything into perspective.
6. If for any reason, you cannot pray, relax. The desire to pray is already a prayer.
7. When you feel sad or sorry, weep. Tears are a prayer of the heart.
8. If prayer makes you passive and indifferent, it isn't prayer. True prayer will bear fruit in care and service.
9. When you don't like someone, pray for them. Prayer reveals the hidden God.
10. Pray when you feel lonely. Prayer puts you in the company of angels.
