Most of us are used to praying while kneeling or perhaps while standing. Sometimes we allow ourselves to sit and pray, but we are maybe just a bit guilty about not being in the 'proper' prayer position.
However...there are ways to express what we feel in our prayer through our position while praying. Prayer is about communication. We are communicating with God and we should feel free to show our emotions to God while praying. After all, we may as well be honest with God-God knows how we feel already and just wants us to share that.
If you are joyful and full of praise why not stand up, raise your head and maybe even your hands in joy. Smile, laugh, dance, give God the glory! Like the little child with the statue, you can relax and let yourself rejoice in your relationship with God!
Are you confessing sins? Now is the time to sit, kneel, or even prostrate yourself before God.
If you are petitioning or asking God for a response-hold your hands open so they can be filled.
What position would you try if you were fearful or angry at God? A raised fist? God honors our emotions, so don't be afraid to let even anger and fear show.
