Prayer Help

[cys19]

I consider myself a Christian b/c I have a relationship with Jesus and I can feel he's there. My problem is sharing my relationship with other Christians. I don't know how to publicly pray. So could you guys give me some examples for me to practice on? When I pray by myself, I talk about really deep things that relate to my personal life and am more forward about word usage, so if you hear my prayers, none of them would make sense b/c when I'm that forward I talk in Chinese and English both at once. Weird eh? I have always been part of Sunday school, but I never volunteered to pray because even at home I can't pray at the dining table for the rest of my family.

You don't need to "publically" pray. It says in the Bible, when you pray to go in your room alone, shut your door, and pray to God.

Do you mean saying Grace, or closing up Sunday School with a prayer? Yeah, I'm a little shy about that. Just keep it simple, and it'll be okay.

See I'm trying to "grow up." And I'd be seen as a lil baby if I can't do it and some 8 year old can. Just teach me yal. I can't even keep it simple. Bless this bless that I duno what to say. One time I was just like (I shouldn't use His name in vain) Dear <Mr. Big Guy's Name>, please bless everybody in this room more than they have ever been. Amen

I mean man that is so short. We don't even need to be blessed. People in Russia and Africa and the Middle East need to be blessed.
