In fact, praying with pictures can be a helpful way to pray even today, in the third millennium.<\/p>\n<p>Here are just a few ways:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. <\/strong><strong>Doodle your <a href=\"http:\/\/guideposts.org\/free-ebooks\/prayer-every-need\/download?int_source=BlogPost&amp;int_medium=EmbeddedLink&amp;int_campaign=FreeEbookPrayerNeed\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">prayer<\/a> in a journal.<\/strong><br \/>\nDraw the person or thing you\u2019re praying for. Or ask, <em>What will an answer to my prayer look like?, <\/em>and draw that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. <\/strong><strong>Color a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.coloringpages.net\/bible.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">picture<\/a> <\/strong><strong>or <a href=\"http:\/\/printmandala.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">symbol<\/a> <\/strong><strong>as you pray.<\/strong><br \/>\nColoring isn\u2019t just for children. On a recent prayer retreat, my wife enjoyed an extended session of coloring exquisite designs the retreat leader provided while praying and listening to worship music (see illustration at right).<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. <\/strong><strong>Focus on a snapshot of the people or things you are praying for.<\/strong><br \/>\nSome people keep family photos or school snapshots in their Bibles, prayer journals or in a special place of prayer to help them visualize the objects of their prayer.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4. <\/strong><strong>Pray on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>.<\/strong><br \/>\nType in a simple search term like \u201cprayer,\u201d \u201cintercession\u201d or \u201cpraise,\u201d and use the \u201cpins\u201d that appear to inspire your praying. You may even want to create your own Pinterest prayer board.<\/p>\n<p><strong>5. <\/strong><strong>Pray with a drawing or painting app on your smartphone or tablet.<\/strong><br \/>\nTry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sketchbook.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sketchbook Express<\/a> or <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fiftythree.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Paper by Fifty-Three<\/a>. Both have a free version, though Paper is available only for Apple products.<\/p>\n<p>Some people find that creative exercises like these help them corral active minds and focus their thoughts. Some also save the fruits of their efforts to enhance subsequent prayer sessions.<\/p>\n<p>If a picture is worth a thousand words, pictures may do more for your prayer life than you ever thought possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>News accounts recently announced a project to discover and record instances of medieval graffiti in England.
