Whether you're cultivating a life of prayer with Jesus for the first time or you're trying to reignite that fire in your soul, the breadth of prayer advice can be dizzyingly overwhelming.
If you're open to it, today, Fr. Mike has one more prayer to try out: T-A-R.
1. Tell the Lord what's on your heart
2. Ask him for what you need
3. Rely on the Lord to answer your prayer
It might seem simple, but it might change your prayer life forever.

My husband & I were non practicing Catholics for over 40 years. Last month he texted me the Hallow app so we could compete in the Daily Quiz. Slowly I began to poke around the app - just looking. But the more I looked and listened to Father Mike, the more my mind & heart opened to God. One day I told my husband, “I want God in my life. I want to walk with Jesus. And I want to go to confession and Mass.” “I thought you’d never ask,” he said. Thank you God for working through Father Mike. I foolishly gave up on you for so many years, but you never gave up on me. Thank you.

I have a good prayer that I just made up: I repent all the sins that I have ever committed, big or small, even those that I have already repented, for the devil is nothing but lies and sadness. I seek to live an eternity with you, Christ Jesus, an eternity filled with love and happiness. I seek to be forgiven of all my sins so I may be made new again, body and soul, in resurrection of the dead and the second coming of Christ, which I await hopefully.

@@Call_Upon_YAH you realize in that same breath by quoting your kjv, you're admitting there's multiple bibles. Also, the kjv came from the first Catholic bible. You know, the bible that the holy Spirit guided the writers and the Catholic Church that put the bible together. But, I guess Luther knew better than the Holy Spirit when he decided to remove books and add at least one word and by doing so made the kjv contradict itself. The bible can't contradict itself, the problem is, Luther's does. Hope that helps

My journy to Jesus is slow (as I asked for). I suddenly thought it is time to pray and do so not as a one off, but a first of many. I searched Prayer for beginners and found this first. I take it as a sign, because not only does it feel welcoming and true, I also happen to have the Name Michael after the Nickname of my father and the Lastname Schmitz. So I listen to Father Mike Schmitz and all makes sense. Thanks to you and the Lord.

My daughter joined a Catholic computer dating service and unfortunately found some really awful guys. I told her she would find the right one someday. Finally, she asked God, "If I'm supposed to be married, show me the man I'm supposed to marry. If I'm not supposed to be married, show me what I should do with my life." She met a wonderful man, they've been married for almost 4 years and he is almost like another son for me. So, this T.A.R. routine really works.

I just talk to God - over the years it's a relationship that has deepened and very personal between me and my creator. God is such a patient listener. Even when I was a little girl in a difficult childhood I was aware of something bigger out there I could turn to, that always gave me hope that the bad stuff would not last. God is my constant companion. My conversations with God can be about deeper stuff and sometimes me going 'seriously God!?' about something like a blocked drain. I can almost hear him replying 'yep seriously Leazy - time to call your kvetchy landlord and his magic plumbing rods.' Without God what am I? He gave me life.

I went to Eucharistic Adoration 2 days ago. First I prayed the prayer before the cross. Then I told Him how wonderful it was to be with Him. And thanked Him for everything in my life. Then I asked Him to just talk to me. Of course I couldn’t hear His voice so I would just say little things then tell myself to be still. The next day I awoke with a few prayers and started about my day, which is being lazy and playing games on my phone. I knew I had things to do but started ignoring them. Until I felt this gentle, loving prodding and without a thought went and cleaned the dishes and counter tops. The whole day went like that. For the first time in ages I could feel His presence. Going back tonight for more “talk”🥰🙏

@gainsofglory6414 9 месяцев назад

Can you do a deeper dive on what "rely on God" means? Rely on what? How do you know you are relying on the correct thing? We still have to act. Its not like we say we are relying on him and the sit there motionless for hours or days until god takes over control of our faculties and bodies and does what we needed for us. So while we are engaged in the relevant action, how do you distinguish what you are reliant on versus what action you supplying yourself and do so accurately? Even if you achieve what you asked for, how do you know your prayer had any impact? What if you were just capable all along and you just did the action yourself? We obviously don't want to take credit for things god provides, but we also don't want to see god in things he isn't doing, as we might miss what he actually intended. So how do you determine what actually to rely on and not what you think god means?
