OUR VALLEY SANTA CLARITA SPIRITUAL RENEWAL

The Prayer Process

Gratitude : Begin by thanking God in a personal dialog for whatever you are most grateful today .
Awareness : Revisit the times in the past 24 hours when you were and were not the best version of yourself . Talk to God about these situations and what you learned from them .
Significant Moments : Identify something you experienced in the last 24 hours and explore what God might be trying to say to you through that event ( or person ).
Peace : Ask God to forgive you for anything wrong you have committed ( against yourself , another person or Him ) and to fill you with a deep and abiding peace .
Freedom : Speak with God about how He is inviting you to change your life , so that you can experience the freedom to be the best version of yourself .
Others : Lift up to God anyone you feel called to pray for today , asking God to bless and guide them .
Pray the Our Father
