There were plenty of days before I began to have a more personal relationship with the living word. I had to come to a day of surrender to begin to accept his will for my life.Now, every day is a living prayer and very real to me.

I am always connected to God or the Divine call it what you will its the same thing. Its all about mindfulness, the Bible says to pray always, we are all part of the divine. I try to make my life a living walking meditation not only when I leave my home but while going about my day to day life.
Many blessings

twice is my final answer.people might say that praying is a waste of time and how to them it is a waste of time for me playing video games or doing something unprdoductive is a waste. i pray even when i am mad,busy with school and whatever is thrown my way and it helps so much!the people who sit there and call themselves "good christians" are not because they "do not find the time" to pray which is the stupidest excuse i have heard so far!you pray in your own time,where ever as long as you pray!

Lots and lots.
I don't think about God every minute of every day... But what I do try to do is catch moments of everyday beauty, peacefulness or even quiet joy of my blessings. That's when I prefer to think of my Lord and say thanks.
Generally, if I look to God for help, it's for others.
A long time ago, I decided that if I ever prayed for myself it would be for two things, wisdom and strength. The rest I figure I can supply. God helps those who help themselves and all that stuff.
Peace

It comes and goes, but recently I find myself none to short on prayer or God. How often do you pray would be a better question. :-)

I start everyday as I get up speaking in tongues quietly within myself and I always first thing (also) lift the things on my heart to the Father as well as things I need or want to do that are important. I pray in the name above all names,Jesus Christ.
Thank you for asking.
edit: I guess I ended without (technically) answering your question. Of course the answer is zero. ****smiles****
Also giving thanks is also a big part of prayer. An "attitude of gratitude" really helps a person's health physically and mentally. A big part of my prayer life is giving thanks to God for things that He has already promised (in His Word) and thereby building my believing (confidence) to receive the things He has in store.

Prayer is a waste of time. It's merely another way religion keeps its converts emotionally "plugged in" to the superstition. Even if their was a god, it would be silly for such a god to require people begging to him all the time to change his "perfect plan" on their behalf, or blowing smoke up his butt, telling him how great he is.
However, prayer is useful to a religion. It is a type of virtual big brother that enforces the worst type of "thought police" regime. People are made to feel guilty for not keeping in touch with God and, at the same time, told that their "bad" deeds and even thoughts are being monitored by him. This gives those fakers in robes way too much power over the people they've trained to follow like sheep.

Not being religious I don't pray. Being spiritual, I treat all life in accordance with my beliefs.

Every day I can. God is a fictitious creature in your mind, that is all. You might as well pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster. Or try Santa Claus or the Tooth Fairy.
