The prayer is a fundamental reality in the life of a Christian striving for holiness. This article presents the issue of prayer in the writings of Polish saint Urszula Ledóchowska. The Author on the basis of her writings is trying to answer the question: what conditions must be achieved to pray in the right way. At the beginning of the paper he presents a broad understanding of pray- er, which is primarily a kind of bridge between the temporality and eternity, between a man and a God. The heart of prayer is remaining in communion with God, which is made possible by the virtue of love. It the next part presents the basic difficulties linked with prayer, shows also an appropriate attitude for the process of prayer, such as: the internal focusing, the living faith, the perseverance, and the living in harmony with others. In the final part of the article discusses the basic characteristics of the saint Ursula’s prayer, like her devotion to the Agonizing Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
