i am recently started fasting and pursuing religion how should i speak to jesus and how do i know if i am being healed or saved i prayed for the first time and repented several times in the past but now i am really sticking to it i never was religious and wasn’t grown up much like that my family was but they never taught it to us i prayed for the first time and felt weakness in my body like it physically took something out of me i used to have really bad and evil thoughts but i have since noticed they have become less they are still there and i work on ignoring them and focusing on the good and being better but i pray and imagine myself in nature with jesus and talking to him and him talking to me back and forth like friends almost is to wrong to do this or speak to jesus or for him in my mind or is this acceptable i want advice cause i never prayed and don’t know what to expect or even know how to properly pray i have never been baptized either and how could i pursue that does it have to be done by a priest or can it be done by anyone or myself i do not have an idea of what i am doing but really want to be better and find god i notice when i imagine myself with him in nature or somewhere happy almost like a happy place it helps my mind and outlook on life and i feel different after makes me feel closer to nature and the lord what is you opinions on what i have said and how should i change or improve this
How should I pray and pursue religion?
