INTRODUCTION

In the previous chapter we recommend access to different "themes" of the ten that we published in our blog. The reason is because, to begin to begin in prayer, the soul must cherish intellectual principles and knowledge of faith, for without them the beginning can be found without knowing what to say and the conversation will degenerate into pure fantasy, not background or fruit, becoming a tiresome exercise that will soon leave. However, it also must be clear that while these skills are useful and necessary to illuminate the intelligence, not to be confused with what is proper prayer, which only begins when entering in contact with God supernaturally by the affection and abandonment to Him by love.

What should be our attitude in prayer? Humility

-Like the publican who beat his chest saying, "Lord, have mercy on me a sinner" (Lk 18, 10-13).

Confidence

-Based on the promise of Christ's promise: "Ask and you shall receive" (Jn 16:24) , and also: "Your heavenly Father knows well the needs you have" (Lk 12, 30).

"The Apostle James says:" But let him ask with confidence, nothing wavering, for he who doubts is like the waves of the sea, blown by the wind and carried from one place to another. A man should not think anything from the Lord, is an indecisive man, unstable in all his ways " (James 1, 6).

"With faith and trust. St. Augustine: "The foundation of prayer is faith." And Jesus taught us: "Whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer with faith, you shall receive" (Mt 21,22).
-confidence is the attitude that expects everything from God.
Interiority

"The Holy Spirit-the Spirit of Jesus," combines the sentiments of adoration and trust, giving our inner attitude suits the character that our relationship with God.

"In short: Let's turn by the action of the Holy Spirit.

- "Your Father who sees in secret will reward you" (Mt 6, 18)
Cleaning heart
"The pure of heart comes before God with all their miseries, but the truth .
"We must resolutely guide our life according to God's will. Poverty
spiritual "The self believes not need prayers, because he has become his own god.
Perseverance
-Jesus: "You must pray at all times and not falter (Lk 18.1). He did so: (See video below, in" Biblical Tragmentos).
"The cause of failing to be souls of prayer and succeed in prayer, is the lack of perseverance (Fray Luis de Granada)
-Prayer gives consistency and strength to our spiritual .
-Pray with persistence and perseverance recommend it include: St. Gregory of Nyssa, S. MacarioEgipcio, S. Ambrosio, S, Jerome, Gregory S. Great, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Angela, St. Catherine of Siena, St. of Avila. S. Juan de la Cruz ,.... (Ref. Saints and the need for prayer)
In the name of Jesus Christ
When we come before God to pray, we must revive our faith in Jesus Christ-which is able to "jump on "to him," introducing us to the bosom of the Father, where He is "Father, I want mine to be with me where I am" (Jn 17, 24).
then begins communication: Christ by his Spirit pray with and for us (Heb 7, 25).
- "Whatever you ask the Father in my name, I'll do it, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son (Jn 14, 13).
"I am the way, truth and life. No one comes to the Father except through me (Jn 14.6).
" Nobody knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to express (Lk 10, 22).
- "Much pleased God to see a soul who quietly puts third to his Son "
(Santa Teresa de Jesus -" Life, chapter 22 -.
personal Prayer
"My Lord Jesus Christ help me down this path so difficult on the opposition between my two natures make my life a constant struggle to reach the sky, which also opposes Satan with his powerful influence. Admíteme as a soldier in your kingdom, to fight for his recovery, and well able to meet the faithful when I give in to the Father. "
Recommendation
If you have not already done so, you start trying to pray. Do it "your way" and review it in the next chapter helping with the exhibition of the "difficulties and advice." We leave this example of personal prayer arising from faith and the experiences made over several years within this equipio, but you should get to have your own, because, speaking of personal prayer, "it is not repeat what you like the prayer of the others but all can always learn something from others-but to express what you feel within experientially. In this regard we attach an example in the series: "Flashes."
