It's amazing how just talking to God makes me feel better.

[Royal Crayon]

When I have all these emotions and I feel sad, just driving my car and talking to God makes me feel better. It's not really a prayer, but it's more like just talking. Like...

"Please let this be a good day and please help some of the stupid kids to stop being jerks, I'm sorry I call them jerks but they...yada yada and so on"

After talking to him I feel much better. :3
How do you talk or pray to God? Do you feel better afterwards?

Every time I pray/talk to God I always feel better. Sometimes I instantly feel great. I'm always so thankful for what I have and I always have to voice it.

How do you talk or pray to God?

Most people close their eyes when they pray, (Which I just recently thought about. Why do people do that?) but whenever I pray to the Lord I pray looking up to him with my eyes open. It makes me feel even closer to him then just bowing my head to the ground with my eyes closed.

Do you feel better afterwards?

I love talking to the Lord. Whenever I finish praying I just feel reenergized and rejuvinated. ^_^

Maybe it's to block out worldy distractions. I know if my eyes are open while praying/talking to God (during the day) I get distracted by people walking by or flashes of light D:

Praying is actually something I really need to work on. But I can tell you, one time when I did, He really came through. I'm in highschool and some people in my PE class REALLY and i mean REALLY get on m nerves. They're arrogant and conceited and everything they say is just slamming someone else. But anyways, I've gotten in trouble for getting angry, losing my temper and punching one of them. I prayed that God would help me control my anger. From then on, never once did I lose it in PE class.

Many people I know that pray feel that they are giving respect to God when we bow our head and close our eyes. Like they are humbling themselves to bow down to God. That is very much the way I feel as well. There are times when I feel God's presence so heavily that I feel so unworthy and I just have to get down on the ground with my face to the floor. It can be a crushing feeling yet it's so lifting and amazing. but yea, I think it's respectful and humbling.

We bow our heads as a sign of humility. After all Jesus told us to be humble and submit to him. I don't know why we close our eyes. I guess it's because so people with ADHD, like myself, and short attention spands won't get distracted from our conversation with God.

maybe we close our eyes because like Isaiah said "Woe to me!" I cried. "I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty". And like it says in Exodus 33:20 "you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live" It all ties in with humility.

Actuallty the verse from Exodus talks about how Moses wanted to see God but God tols him he couldn't because4 he was so holy that if Moses saw his face he would litterally die. That's why mosus could only see the Shakina Glory of God.

That's the point I was trying to make. God is so holy we can not see his face... so that would be a reason why we close our eyes... At least it seems that way to me.

You can tickle me pink, orange, red, or blue, but not grey

That does all make sense. Thank you Faithful and Gothic for you battle to answer my question.....I think.

I know that we can't see the Lord, I very much thank and respect him for the gift that he gave us, and I know that we should come to him humbly. I always try to come to him humbly, because I know that we are just stupid human being that are REALLY REALLY SUPER DUPER lucky to have the Lord love us as much as he does. I also ask in my prayers that he would always help me never to become vain, proud, or haughty, but always stay humble and contrite in spirit, heart, mind, and soul. I never said that I didn't know, or was against any of that. I guess that when I think about looking up to him, I also think sometimes about the verse that says "Keep your eyes to Heaven, for the day is coming"....unless that was just a saying of someone. Please correct me if I'm wrong....which I probably am. redface Also, yes, I realize that is talking about the rapture.

Because grey will not do.

I keep my eyes open when I pray. It's more like talking to him. Just like "Hey how are you?" and "Im doing fine, but I could use some help..." etc. Just like a chit chat for me.  

[Fates Oblivion]

I talk with God as if I was talking to someone else. But somtimes I only do it in my mind while other times I actually speak. Yeah it does help when I am feeling down. ^-^
