I do not pray. I do not seek help nor guidance from without, only from within. Any answers that come from outside oneself are merely superficial and temporal. They are not eternal Truths and only serve to confound and obfuscate. This is my Truth. This may not be anyone else's truth. This is why I don't pray. This is why I meditate.

I pray several times a day. I pray for those who have requested prayers, for silent requests (those that are not comfortable saying them out loud, but God knows.) We have a group at my church, the Upper Roomers, we have specific times once a week where we go in and pray over our church, pastors, staff, volunteers, church grounds, missionarys, and for the many, many requests we get. I pray for my family, friends, enemies, for request given at Sunday School, Tuesday night Single's group, and Wednesday night Bible study. To teknimage: In some ways meditating is the same as praying. I tried to look up 'obfuscate' but had no luck. Was this a misspell? I'm just trying to understand your answer. I did not/would not give a negative rating for someones opinions. God Bless, <:))))<><

Several Times A Day!! About everything,especially guidance.

Yes, I pray on a regular basis and I should do it even more.When praying, we need to remember who it is that we are communicating with, The Sovereign Lord, The Creator of the universe. This should humble us and remind us immediately that God is not our “servant” or “errand boy” so our prayers should not sound like orders. Neither should we be self centered in our prayers. Is it his will that we pray about personal concerns? Certainly! Praying to Jehovah God can be much like talking to a close friend. We may speak openly, ‘pouring out our heart’ to God., as the Psalmist did at (Psalm 62:8) It is proper for us to ask for holy spirit, for it will help us to do what is right. (Luke 11:13) We can also ask for guidance in making wise decisions and for strength in coping with difficulties. (James 1:5) When we sin, we should ask for forgiveness on the basis of Christ’s sacrifice. (Ephesians 1:3, 7) Of course, personal matters should not be the only subjects of our prayers. We should broaden out our prayers to include other people—family members as well as fellow worshipers. See —Acts 12:5; Colossians 4:12. Matters relating to God should be given first importance in our prayers. We do well to express heartfelt praise and thanks to him for all his goodness. Remember the model prayer Jesus gave (recorded at Matthew 6:9-13), in which he taught us to pray that God’s name be sanctified, that is, treated as sacred, or holy. That God’s Kingdom come and that his will be done on the earth as it is in heaven are mentioned next. Only after covering these important matters relating to His father, did Jesus give attention to personal concerns. When we likewise give God the most important place in our prayers, we show that we are interested in more than just our own welfare.

Well, I dont have a husband, but I pray all the time.

I pray throughout the day, but not consciously in the slide - no time <grin..

I keep last 30 minutes of my day for my personal talk with Him. I do not and cannot pray as pray, but spend time on one-to-one basis with Him on how my day was, what was best, what went wrong, how I could have been better, and how I failed Him. It is more of like a personal talk and relationship that I speak with Him.

What an excellent question! I am ashamed to say that I pray mostly when I need it. But I do go to church 2 to 3 times a week. But that I actually pray well as I said only when needed.

Not on a regular basis. I talk in the general direction of where God may be sometimes when I'm happy, sometimes when I'm bummed, though it never feels connected, and sometimes my talk gets frantic when things start looking pretty bleak, though that doesn't seem to help the connection any. The problem with a lot of the fervent prayers who want to ask you over to their religion, is their religion is built on some fairly impossible to believe foundations.
