Praying Out Loud.


Yes I took this pic.
Ok so I haven't been able to write in this in awhile,so I'm going to tell you what's been going on in my life :) Ok so on Sunday I went to church,pizza hutt,then share group. On Monday I woke up with a major headache :( yeah I stayed home from school. So today I went to school and took the FCAT :p blahh so yeah that's pretty much it.

But what I really want to talk about is what we did at my church on Sunday night. We did this great exercise. Our youth minister told us to talk about our problems and then praying about them out loud with eachother. This really took me out of my comfort zone I DO NOT like praying out loud. I always pray to myself. I always feel like if I pray out loud I'm going to sound stupid or mess it up. This exercise made me think about a lot of things. I came to realize that it doesn't matter how you pray to God. He doesn't care. God never judges. Which that is something us humans should learn how to do. We should learn how to give people chances and to talk to them first before we start judging them. This is getting really old and out of hand. I wish it would stop. Of course I'm gulity of judging people too. Everybody is. We need to all work on it.


A friend once told me that it really doesn't matter how we pray to God, we should talk to him like we were talking to one of our friends. For God is our friend, am I right ? That just really inspired me when my friend told me this. :) You know who you are ;) I just wanted to say thanks. :)


Anyways, when we prayed out loud to eachother I got SO much closer to my youth group. I learned that there are many problems that people face everyday. People are going through hard times everyday. That made me think...we should all be kinder than necessary because everyone you pass is fighting some kind of battle. Just think if everyone was nicer to eachother, what a better world this would be...


Not only did I get closer to my youth group, I also got closer to God. It felt really good. I enjoyed this feeling. It made me soo happy. It made me feel like nothing could go wrong. It made me realize how much God really loves us. It made me realize what a good life I have and what great caring friends I have. I just loved this feeling. I hope all the people that did this with me felt this way too :) I'm defiantly more comfortable with praying out loud now. :) We should defiantly do this exercise more often.


Well thats all I have to say today :) Hope you enjoyed this :) haha later :)
