Infographic: 7 Ways to Pray

7) WAYS TO PRAY Shalom | | I met a man in Jerusalem who “prays the news" 15 hours each week. If you watch the news, witness a conflict, or hear of a tough situation, pray for shalom - for peace. You can also say hello or goodbye or sign your emails with this powerful one-word prayer. | Bible | | The center of John Wesley's prayer closet was a massive open Bible. If you read a verse that sounds like it could be a prayer for a certain situation, tailor it accordingly and pray it out loud. | Silence | | | As Brother Roger of Taize said, "Maintain inner silence in all things so as to dwell with Christ" Practice stillness in order to commune with Jesus. | Move | | The monks on Mount Athos pray in rhythm to their breathing. Attach physicality to spirituality, whether it's through breathing, walking, running, eating, bathing, or driving. Get creative! | | Light | | | Have you run out of words to pray? Quakers often picture someone in the light of God's grace. Hold them there and ask God to do what only He can do. Prevail | | | Write down a list of everyone you know who is far from God, who you'd like to be filled with life in Christ. Speak their names out loud every day. George Muller prayed for a man for 63 years and 8 months! | | Sing | | | When I visited North Korea, I was so broken for the situation that I couldn't express it with words. So I sang instead. If a song fits a situation that you've been praying about, use it as a tool to express your thoughts | to God. "Fun and insightful."
