Prayer in the Catholic tradition is communication with God, involving expressions of praise, Thanksgiving, petition, and repentance. It is considered essential for developing a personal relationship with God and seeking His guidance and grace in daily life. Through prayer, Catholics seek to deepen their faith, grow in virtue, and align their will with God's.
