Prayer
Figuring out how to pray can be tough! Here are a few ways to get started.
1. Start writing! Start with a blank piece of paper and write a letter to God.
​
2. Be Still...
Go somewhere away from distractions, set a timer for 5-10mins.
Sit still and focus on your breathing, the smallest movements. When you get distracted, repeat Psalm 46:10 "Be Still and Know I am God" to bring yourself back.
