WHERE OUGHT WE TO PRAY?

We can and ought to pray in every place, because God is everywhere present.
The house of God is the place specially set apart for prayer.
3. A solitary place is also suitable for prayer.

FOR WHAT OUGHT WE TO PRAY ?

We ought to implore of God many things and great things; benefits not appertaining to time so much as to eternity.
We ought more especially to beseech almighty God to grant us such things as are conducive to His glory, and to our salvation, and in no wise to ask for what will only serve to gratify our earthly desires.

MEDITATION

Meditation, i.e., contemplative prayer, consists in dwell ing upon the truths of religion, in order to awaken within our minds good resolutions.
Meditation is a most excellent method of prayer, but it must not be pursued to the exclusion of vocal prayer.
By means of meditation we obtain actual graces, and ad vance rapidly on the path of perfection.
