Ask Jane
Working Out a Spiritual Discipline
Asking the question is the first step in answering it!
First let's
talk about prayer. Prayer becomes second nature the more you
do it. What is your favorite phrase for talking with God? Holy
One? Creator? Gracious God? Find a way to begin prayer that feels
right to you and use it regularly. Waiting without words is a
helpful way to begin. It takes discipline to clear your mind
of grocery lists, appointments and other distractions, but do
try it. Find a time of day when you are least likely to be interrupted.
