People tell me, "I just can't find the right words for prayer," or "I don't know how to say what I want to say to God," or "Doesn't praying require a special set of words?"

Here are some tips for finding the "right" words for prayer.

*Try short prayers, one subject at a time.
*When praying with others, agree to one subject at a time.
*Use simple, everyday language.
*Pray Scripture back to God.
*Still your words, practice inner silence (Psalm 46:10).
