Prayers

Some times what we ask for we don't get a sign for when we want it but later on. Some times the answer takes us a while to realize or see. I only ask for certain things like when I need help understanding something. Some times it takes weeks or months or even a year. Some times I pray for others.

Yea I was taught that too but still. haha

I wasn't taught that at all. I ever really went to church a lot but I went enough to know what I need to know.

I have to agree with bamrahkirti. sandra pray isn't always affective or accurate its what you make of it. Some times own self is what is keeping us from things we have to help ourselves before others can help ourselves. You don't need to believe in god or whom ever you believe in. All a pray is, is asking for something that you want or like to have. I believe in god, but I don't believe I need to pray or what ever to get him to help me. Most of the help I need in my life is my self not him. If I wanted understanding or something yes I might ask him or just look into myself for the answer. God wouldn't have been know with out people to write of him and half of the time I believe what is said of him. Word of god or not a pray is just talking that is it.

Prayer is not a religious form without power. It is effective and accurate and brings results. God watches over his Word to perform it. Prayer is the "Living" Word in your mouth. We must commit ourselves to pray and to pray correctly by approaching the throne with your mouth filled with God's Word.

I don't pray for anything really.

Okay I really don't know what you mean by all that. I don't pray ever day I don't want to and I don't need to for myself. I know god knows everything and see everything so there for I don't need to talk to him about anything really. If want understanding I might pray to him and get my answer but I don't want his holy spirit or what ever in me and I don't think you really need it in you for him to know your talking to him or for you to say his name for him to know your talking to him. But that's cool you like praying that many times a day.

I don't believe god blesses people with things. That we do on our own. I don't think prayers will really get you anything. You can do it but it's your own self that gets you what you want with hard work.

I don't believe in god makes us do things or gives us things to keep good or bad things from happening to us. I don't think god controls any of that stuff it takes away from free will and nature as well. If I don't understand something in my life I might pray I might not pray but I don't need to pray to know why something is going on in my life most everything I do is by choice and my fault alone by taking the course I did.

You only pray when your sick? Isn't that kind of selfish thing to ask to make you better because your sick and not for something else like for straight or understanding?

We are a bit different. I don't pray to god every day just when I need help in seeing something. I don't pray at night or morning not even for meals. I don't think someone has to get what they need. If it makes someone feel better to do so then go for it nothing wrong with it. I personally don't believe in prayers very much not even to thank him because most all things in my life I've done myself with out him with out asking him for anything at all. It should be a personal choice, I would never ask my daughter to pray or make her its for herself to choice.

Okay well do you pray and for what reason do you pray? As humans we don't really need god and god doesn't really need us. We don't have to ask him for help. He'll help us even if we don't ask for that help. Sometimes the best help is yourself and not asking someone that we can't see for help. Some things that people ask for are very selfish. Like taking one life to keep another life, or to have more money those are things that people do ask for but they never get it because the are being selfish. Asking for help or to better understand something are normal things that we will find with or with out god. There has been plenty of times in my life where I thought about asking god for help but I didn't and in the end I did it on my own. It has to do more with that person and what kind of relationship they do or do not want with god. Even if you don't have any kind of relationships with him it doesn't mean he isn't there for you when you need it. I don't really talk to god or pray to him unless its about understanding something in my life or asking for straight or wisdom or other wise I feel like I'm being selfish to ask god for things that I have more control over then he does.

Well if I wanted to talk to god I would just do that but when you want something or looking for something you address it as a pray is what I was always taught. I almost never pray to god about anything not even if I just wanted to talk to him. I don't think I need to talk to go ever since he knows what is going on in mylfie and most of the time I can do things for myself with out his help.

Well I'm a women so I don't talk to my dad about to many things. I don't really like praying its not really for me. The only time I do is when I need some help with straight or something that is unselfish.

I don't really pray to go every. Some times I do but just to understand things that is it. Other wise I don't have anything to say to him that he doesn't already know.

From my stand put I think it depends on what we are asking for yourself. If its selfish then why should god give it to us and some times a prayer we ask for is answered in a way we just don't get. I don't like praying so I don't do it that often and I don't think it has to do with how much faith you have.

I don't think everything we pray for comes true or will come true. Some things that people pray about doesn't come true because its something that god just can't do at all. Some people not saying you ask for selfish things, like more money or something like that. If you like praying every day good for you and keep doing it as long as it makes you feel good and your happy about it.
