The actor became subject to a hilarious roasting session soon after he uploaded the clip to Instagram and X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Chris Pratt roasted over his prayer video<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Chris Pratt recently posted a video on Instagram, urging his fans to pray along with him. However, the short clip failed to cause the desired effect as netizens noticed something else. Many users pointed out that the actor looked like he was squinting and merely pretended to close his eyes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The video began with the Guardians of the Galaxy star encouraging his fans to join him in a quick prayer. \u201cHey guys, just stop real quick and pray with me,\u201d he prefaced before reciting Psalm 46:10. \u201cBe still, and know that I am God,\u201d he began with his eyes closed and continued quoting the verses.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Pratt then addressed his fans once again and said, \u201cOK, now you can continue scrolling, or you can turn your phone off and go outside.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The actor then concluded with a few words of motivation. \u201cMight I suggest the latter? Go get some sunshine. Go look at a tree, touch some grass, call a friend. If you\u2019ve got time to be on your phone right now, you\u2019ve got time to do your to-do list, and you\u2019ve got time to reach out to somebody in need. Share this prayer with them,\u201d said Pratt.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, fans were quick to notice that he didn\u2019t seem to close his eyes fully and was instead squinting really hard. Many jokingly accused the actor of secretly reading from a script and questioned the sincerity behind his words. The replies were soon flooded with hilarious reactions from netizens.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cI\u2019m crying so bad, I thought he was having an allergic reaction at first,\u201d one user <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/carlyanne2020\/status\/1967567918105063529\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:commented;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">commented<\/a>.
