2nd …… is about the prayers which we use to communicate with God they called it conversation with God. There are three types of prayer
1. vocal prayer
2. meditative prayer
3. contemplative prayer
Vocal prayer: This is the prayer of the lips, with stress on words, recited or sung. The text is often prefabricated or ready-made and is often beautiful and inspiring. Vocal prayer may also be spontaneous.
Meditative prayer: or meditation, a prayer centered in the mind, which pictures and ponders, reflects and things of God and his wonderful dealings. The mind seeks understanding and insight. In meditation, the lips are quiet and the mind is active.
Contemplative prayer: or contemplation, a prayer of heart and will which reaches out to God’s presence. The lips and mind both come to rest, there is a simple gazing (looking) at the lord while the heart reaches in wordless prayer and the will seeks to be one with his.
Thank You and God bless you.
