Praying
Don't do all the talking
Give God a chance to 'speak' to you
"Acquire the habit of speaking to God
As if you were alone with God
Speak with familiarity
Confidence as to your dearest and most loving friend
Speak of your life
Your plans
Your troubles
Your joys
Your tears
In return
God will speak to you
Not that you will hear audible words in your ears
But words that you will clearly understand in your heart
These may be feelings of peace
Hope
Interior joy, or sorrow for sin
(St. Alphonsus Liguori, Doctor of the Church)
