Praying in Colour
Different ways to do it:
• Name for God in centre,
fears, hopes, joys in corners
• Names of people (intercessory), groups
• Scripture: write out verse,
doodle particular words
• Confession – what in you needs to be
brought to the healing light of God?
• Discernment – listening for the voice
of God in our decisions
• Calendar - lent or advent –
one prayer per day,
pray around the world,
for places and people
you don't usually pray for
