Prayer

Perek Shirah — if this custom speaks to you

What the custom is, and how to approach it without pressure

Perek Shirah is a liturgical work in which parts of creation are described as reciting biblical verses and song. Some people read it regularly, sometimes for forty days, as a framework for prayer and consistency.

Modeh does not present this custom as a guarantee of a relationship or as a test of faith. If it speaks to you, you may choose it; if not, choose personal prayer, Psalms, or another practical step.
