Be always with Christ.
Pray as you can, not as you want.
Have a keepable rule of prayer that you do by discipline.
Say the Lord’s Prayer several times a day.
Have a short prayer that you constantly repeat when your mind is not occupied with other things.
Make some prostrations when you pray.
Eat good foods in moderation.
Keep the Church’s fasting rules.
Spend some time in silence every day.
Do acts of mercy in secret.
Go to liturgical services regularly
Go to confession and communion regularly.< ![CDATA[
