Come all Ye' Faithful... and tell us how God has answered (page 3)

Sour Grapes

I prayed that I would survive the great tribulation in 1975 and I am still

here which proves that God answers prayers.

Sour Grapes

I recall praying with every fibre that existed in my soul, for a simple answer to a rebellious daughter bent on self-destruction. I bet the house. I threw all my chips on the table. I asked for my entire life record to be used as leverage for this simple request.

The answer either never came, or was never heard.

To this day my daughters life is completely screwed up, we are raising her kids, she is currently looking out between 4" steel bars for the holidays and undetermined future days ahead. I have no daughter to be proud of. My record of faithful service to the "Hearer of Prayer" was tossed aside like a full bucket of shit back into my face.

I reopen the door.

Sorry about your situation Jeff..

My prayers were never answered either.

You received an answer, Jeff - you just don't like the one you got.

How many others have you unknowingly helped just by relating your story?

You received an answer, Jeff - you just don't like the one you got.

No offense Syl, but what answer did I get? That this pain is OK? Your only child can go down the toilet and mess up the rest of her life and yours - just be calm? Just go through life watching all these other people have something positive to say about their kids while all you can say is "Well, she hatches pretty good plans to kill her adoptive father in the shower?"

I honestly don't see why or how God could answer like that.

That you can endure it?

I honestly don't see why or how God could answer like that.

Ask Him.

Ok - that would be 'love'. Hold your 'child' to the ground and gouge out his eyes - 'just endure, I know you can' - if this shit don't kill you you will be better for it.

We have no choice but to 'endure it' - the only other choice is death - since God doesn't seem to give a shit.

May you find peace, Jeff.

If you really believe whats written in the bible,

it does not matter what you pray,

only that gods will be done.

The bible must be fulfilled as it is written.

Nothing that we pray for will change,

a script was written to be played out

it says nothing about a hope that man will ever work out

the problems, only that God will fix things in his own due time.

Praying changes nothing concerning the outcome.

This thread is .00001% about my peace - and 99.99999% about how God has denied to answer anyone.

No one has yet told me of a prayer that was clearly answered.
