When we were baptized, we became God's children. We became the brothers and sisters of Jesus and the Holy Spirit began to live in us. We show our love to God our Father by speaking with him in prayer and this makes us want to love him in other ways, especially by what we do for others. We ought to set aside some time every day when we can speak with God. We would be strange and unloving children if we did not speak each day to our parents. Often the best prayers are those which we make up but it is always good to use those made up by others as well. Some of the better included in this booklet, but there are some lesser known ones too.
