You might start with the Gospels to get to know Jesus. Psalms are good, we're studying those in Sabbath School. They're not just prayers of David and others, they're actually inspired by God. Many are prophecies of Jesus.
Well ... we're here for you. So you can bring things up here to hash out, and there's another thread called Prayer Warriors, you're welcome to join as well.
