I have difficulties in being faithful to my prayer life and I should pray more. Usually it’s like 5 min in the morning and 10-15 min before I go to sleep. Even if I take the decision to make an effort and to spend more time with God, when I start praying I immediately become impatient and distracted and tired, especially at evening. So I would appreciate your prayers for this intention. 😃
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee.

Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death.

Amen.

†

Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name.

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread.

And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Amen.

Prayers said for an enhanced prayer life; I think God knows our earthly limits with distractions and tiredness and understands.
God Bless,
Mary.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen.

Remember oh most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence I fly unto thee oh Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To thee I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. Oh Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions but in thy mercy hear and answer me. Amen.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him we humbly pray and do thou oh Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into Hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
 
Hail, holy Queen, Mother of mercy,
our life, our sweetness, and our hope.
To you do we cry, poor banished children of Eve;
to you do we send up our sighs,
mourning and weeping in this valley of tears.
Turn, then, most gracious advocate,
your eyes of mercy toward us;
And after this our exile,
show unto us the blessed fruit of your womb, Jesus.
O clement, O loving, O sweet Virgin Mary. Amen.
 
Many are like you (us). Distractions pound at our mind. It is very difficult for me to say the Rosary, and when I do, other thought creep into my head. I am much more prayerful when I just sit on my porch and dialoge with God. I tell him thank you for another day, I thank him for our garden (where I sit and ponder these things) and then I talk to him about stuff that happened during the day. This is a form of prayer, just talking with Him.

Here is another wonderful way to pray the entire day without repeating prayers. In the morning, before you step out of bed, say “Jesus, I offer you my day” Then every action, and even feelings (hunger, thirst, sorrow) becomes an act of prayer and offering to Jesus. He does great things with our offerings of the day.

In the evenings, I can just repeat memorized prayers, I take the Bible into my hands and let it open to a page, its always random, but this way it’s like God is showing me somethng I need to read. And 9 times out of 10, I can relate to something that happened during the day and when you read scripture, and ponder it, this too is a form of prayer. Contemplative prayer.

So I will say prayers to the Holy Spirit, to help you to pray, and you can also include the Holy Spirit in the morning, and ask the Holy Spirit to help you!!

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of we the faithful.
Enkindle in our hearts the fire of your love
Send us your spirit, our hearts will be renewed,
and YOU shall renew the face of the earth,
Amen

God Bless you!!! I will keep you in my prayers

May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do Thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host,
by the Power of God,
thrust down to hell, satan and all the wicked spirits,
who wander through the world for the ruin of souls.
Amen.

Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary, that never was it known that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession was left forsaken. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto you, O Virgin of virgins, my Mother. To you I come, before you I stand, a sorrowful sinner. Despise not my words, O Mother of the Word, but in your mercy, hear and answer me.
Amen
