In a bed room where one should place the head of the bed What way should Christians face when praying?

Answer 1

Unlike some religions (like Islam) Christianity does not stipulate any particular direction for prayer, nor posture. Christians believe God is a spirit and hence is everywhere, and so facing a particular direction is irrelevant. As for posture, some Christians prefer to stand, some to kneel and others to sit - whatever they find most comfortable, This, of course has some bearing on the direction. As most ancient churches have the altar/communion table at the east end, with chairs or fixed pews facing it, by default, if you kneel or sit then you will face that direction. However, Christians believe prayer is prayer whether it is done sat down, stood up, facing east, west or whatever, on the bus or in the bathroom. What actually matters is that prayer is sincere and prayer is frequent. Anything else is a mere trapping.

Answer 2

Christians may pray facing in any direction, because God is not in a "place".

However, traditionally, Christian churches were built so that the assembly faced East, symbolic of the Christ, the Light of the World, represented by the rising sun. It was also common to pray facing Jerusalem, as was also the case with Jews and Muslims, for a time. For Europeans, this usually meant facing East, or south east.
