Prayers that are unanswered...

Have you ever had problems where you kept praying and asking God to guide you and hope that everything would eventually become okay and yet it seems to be going a lot worse that before? Have you ever felt that God doesn't listen to your prayers anymore?

God maybe said: "hey, you do not see that I already answered your asking" something worse happened in the near times could be to prevent you from experiencing the worst thing in the future.....

hi sayariza! thanks for responding. actually I also believe that "Everything that happens has it's purpose and reason." And it's kind of funny that I have this on and off thing with God which I think I have no right to feel because I know what He has done for me. Like I actually talk to Him in my prayers as normal as just like talking to a friend. And when I feel like He's not listening to me anymore and problems get worse, I tell Him - "So now You're so busy you can't listen to me anymore" and then I stop talking to Him and praying to Him. And yet, when worst comes to worse, no matter what, it is still Him that I call on to for help.

hi there, sometimes, there are things that we ask from God that he don't give us maybe because we don't really need it or maybe it will not do any good to us. or maybe, we are lacking something like faith in order to get what we prayed for.
