Prayer In Public Schools-responsibility Of Christians

We're responsible, as followers of Jesus, to maintain contact with God through prayer. It isn't something we view as an option, but a constant practice. I'm not talking about prayer before meals, bed, ceremonies, etc. Our prayer is usually private, taking every issue to our God and seeking His guidance. If we believe the Bible, we have other responsibilities, as well. We're required to be ambassadors of Christ, to be like Him in this world, to love our neighbors, to live at peace with everyone and to obey the laws where we live. These are no less our obligations than prayer. In fact, insisting on public Christian prayer can contradict and oppose our other obligations to God. If our duly elected and appointed Government has deemed official prayers in public schools to be illegal, we should obey the law, and pray in private, not subjecting others to our religious practices.
