I'm reminded of Hannah when she prayed in the temple and it was recorded of her, "Hannah was speaking in her heart; only her lips moved, and her voice was not heard." I find that when I am petitioning something of the Lord, I can more easily stay on task in my prayers. It would be interesting to start praying out loud during a more routine prayer to see if it helps my focus. Thanks for the insight!
