I feel a strong desire to serve Jesus and be a witness to the wonderful things He's done. But my prayers are pretty awkward even when I'm alone and I get tounge tied when I try to discuss God with people. Nevertheless, the pastor of the church I attend is letting me read some stories from Jesus Freaks to our small youth group Wednesday. I've prayed for Jesus to work through me, yet when I prayed with a sick neighbor yesterday, I forgot something about which she wanted me to pray and I stumbled all over my words. ACK! I'd appreciate any brief prayer you can offer on my behalf. I'd like to sow some seeds on good soil for our Lord.

Hehe, I think we've all done the stumbling prayer a few times. My biggest piece of advice is make sure your prayers are completely and totally sincere. I've found that as my prayers become more sincere, I forget about what is going on around me and the Holy Spirit just feeds me words. It's only when I concentrate on who is near me, who is listening, etc. that I stumble. I will pray for you. God Bless You for doing your best for living for Jesus.
