Summary

Whether you're cultivating a life of prayer with Jesus for the first time or you're trying to reignite that fire in your soul, the breadth of prayer advice can be dizzyingly overwhelming.

If you're open to it, today, Fr. Mike has one more prayer to try out: T-A-R.

Tell the Lord what's on your heart
Ask him for what you need
Rely on the Lord to answer your prayer

It might seem simple, but it might change your prayer life forever.
