Quite often people think that there are some classical prayers that can help them better than the ones from their hearts. In fact, it’s not true. Just take a look at pastors. They know the Bible well, they know what they are talking about but all their sermons are composed from their hearts. Every heart has enough language to be heard by the Lord.
The most effective prayer is the one that’s pronounced with full faith. You just need to feel that you believe in your own words. This is how you can reach the Lord and help Him hear you. The Lord is your father. He’s almighty and powerful but He loves you and hears you whatever is going on. When you turn to your human father, do you learn by heart some sort of speeches? No, you just speak with love and respect and your father returns this love to you.
