| Meditative Prayer | |
 |
There are different ways to pray. In this type of prayer a Christian will meditate (think deeply) about God. This involves organising a time when you will be on your own in silence. You will use something - often some sentences from the Bible, which talk about God - to help you meditate. |
|
This means you will think about the meaning of the words, use your imagination to picture God, ask God to help you understand, or help you obey what he has said to you, ask questions, in order to grow closer to God. Christian meditation is very different from some forms of meditation that come from other religions. Many Christians would be worried about sharing in these other forms of meditation. |
