    Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind (Matthew 22:37 "Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.") every day that we get up, you have to be thankful for another beautiful day God has given us. Our job on this Earth is to do everything for God and do it to please God. Jesus says to pray always (Luke 21:36 "Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.") Which isn't that bad because once you start serving the Lord and you receive his Holy Spirit. Through the Holy Spirit your life changes (Romans 12:2 "And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.") God gets in you and shows you the truth (John 14:6 "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."), and you want to do everything that you can to please God in every way (John 14:17 "Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.") He will make your life so much better (John 16:13 "Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; bit whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.") The more you do for Him and the more you praise God, the more he will do for you. (1 Thessalonians 5:18 "In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.") Just get on God's good side and do all of his commands. There is no reason for you to be sad everyday but just to thank God in every way (Joshua 1:9 " Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest.) (Colossians 3:23-24 "23 And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; 24 Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.") If it's stormy, know God is keeping you safe, all you have to do is pray. (Proverbs 3:5-6 "5 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.") Before you pray, Jesus says to pray the prayer God gave us (Matthew 6:9-13 "9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. 10 Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. 11 Give us this day our daily bread. 12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. 13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen."), because God already knows what we want before we pray it (Matthew 6:8 "Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.") (Psalms 37:4 "Delight thyself also in the Lord; and shall give thee the desires of thine heart.") (John 14:13-14 "13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it." God will do anything for you as long as you give your life and soul to him (Deuteronomy 4:29 "But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.") Do everything for God to help you get better, because in the end you will greatly be rewarded (Hebrews 11:6 "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.") If you wanna know how to pray, just talk to God to help you get better. You don't want to suffer in the end. Pray that you will have good days and if you don't have anything to pray about. Just pray what Jesus told us to pray The Lord's Prayer. Stay positive and live in the Lord because he lives in us (Colossians 3:16 "Let the word of Christ dwell in your richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your heart to the Lord.")
