Had you prayed already? What it’s all about?
A prayer is a message for God. Your prayers can be for your self or for your love ones. This message can be a request or a thanksgiving. People sometimes request for material or non-material things and pray to thank God for the comforts or for the blessings that they or their love ones received.
Some people, when they received comforts, they ask God that they may learn to use them well for peace and serenity, to use them comfortably in the service of men and peace and thank God for it because it made them live comfortably.
There are traditional prayers like Angelus. Angelus is prayed in the morning, afternoon, and as the sun sets but it is usually recited at 6:00 pm. This prayer commemorates the Incarnation and is recited by the Roman Catholics. This prayer is said to be source of spiritual strength in some way. It has an effect on some people or some gather spiritual strength.
There are also prayers which are common to people, like Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be, Hail Holy Queen and etc. These prayers have a message like the prayers that you composed for yourself or for your love ones.

I am praying to God that He will answer your innermost prayers! Bless you and thanks for sharing!
