How To Make God Laugh (Jesus Christ, experience, pray, trinity)

[Bishka]

Woody Allen was speaking on how to make God laugh, his answer


" Tell him your future plans."

This topic is sort of on prayer and your relationship with God and Jesus Christ.

How do you pray? Is there specific times during the day that you pray? Is that a formulaic prayer that you say every day? How personal are you? Do you tell God things, even if He knows them about you?

WARNING: This is not about the trinity or the validity of anyones claims toward the Godhead. This is just about prayer.

I pray on my knees every morning and every night. I also have multiple "casual conversations" with God throughout the day. I'm sure He must get very tired of hearing from me.

I don't pray but, unlike YmirGF, I feel like I should. It seems reduntent to do repetitive prayers and he already knows everything I need. It just seems useless. Whenever I do try to pray I find myself cussing and I don't cuss in person. It seems like, if god is listening, he isn't very responsive. I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.

I pray as I see the need. When I am elated, I pray. When I am sad, I pray. When I need guidance, I pray. When I need to love more I pray. I spend an awful lot of time praying these days.

When do you not see the need, NetDoc?
