What do you think the benefits of having a daily practice of prayer is for you personally?

For me personally, prayers helps me to connect with my deity. When I pray to her for whatever reason, even if it is to just talk, I feel fulfilled afterwards. I even feel like this when I am asking for something to help a situation in my life because I know all in due time things will happen to help.

I agree with you. I feel that I grow closer to them. When I pray to them I feel like I am inviting that energy into our lives if only for a little bit. I feel that this also shows our love and devotion to the different deities out there,

I also feel that for those of us who work with many different deities and spirits from multiple paths and practices having prayers unique to each one can help us be able to maintain relationships with many different beings at once. Through having different prayers I feel that we can express how our relationships with the different beings are.

I wouldn't want to use the same prayer with my Dragon Guides as I would with the Sun God. They are different beings and for me deserve to be treated individually. I also ritually work with them differently so that is also why I use different prayers.

Prayer is super important for me. When I first started worshiping the god and goddess that's exactly where I started. I knew I had to build that relationship with him/her. I know that I don't know what I'm doing still, but my god and goddess do. I try to pray everyday even if it's just to thank them for being alive. Sometimes it's just to talk to them. I always feel better afterwards.
