How can prayer help my family during difficult times?

Prayer helps families during difficult times by connecting you to God's peace, strength, and wisdom. When you pray, you acknowledge that you need God's help and can't handle everything on your own. Prayer reduces anxiety and stress by shifting your focus from problems to God's power and promises. It brings families together as you unite in seeking God's intervention. Prayer invites the Holy Spirit to work in your situation and in the hearts of family members. Many families report that their greatest spiritual growth happens during trials when they learn to depend on God through prayer.

Make it personal by having each person share something they're thankful for or a prayer request. Create a comfortable, distraction-free environment for prayer.

Most importantly, make prayer time positive and meaningful, not forced or boring.
