Prayer causes things to happen that would not have happened otherwise.

  2. Yes to your words about prayer. God listens to each prayer and responds, he has His own plans. Prayer by many is also powerful, I am in several prayers groups at church.

  3. Hello Sandi: I totally believe in Prayer and the Rosary.
    Without Prayer I would not have the Blessings I have, they have gone a long way with Michaels health.

  4. I've often wondered about that. Do you believe God's will wouldn't happen if we didn't pray? I'm just wondering! What if we forget to pray...will God still answer our unprayed prayers? Just thinking out loud. I do believe in the power of prayer for sure!

    1. I think both. We pray and something can happen that would not have otherwise happened. But also, God's will is sovereign. If He wills it, it happens.

    2. Pamela and Sandi,

      May I answer this please? Yes, God will answer unprayed prayers. As a loving parent you would give your children good things whether they ask you or not. But every so often, you like to hear them ask for a treat, a toy or something nice. And if it is appropriate, and the timing is right, you would gladly give it.

      So does God like to hear our needs for ourselves and for others. Prayer is the greatest gift we can give to, or receive from, others. It shows a generosity of spirit and caring towards others. Loving each other as God told us to.

      God bless.

  5. It is likely prayers helped save my life for I am finally recovering from a very long life threatening event not related to Covid. It was an error made during a day surgery. Last November.

  6. And no doubt the other way around, too: Evil actions of every kind that have been prevented by the prayers of God's people are uncountable, since they did not happen, thank God.

  7. Yes, and it is faith that brings what we ask for in our prayers into existence. God bless.

    1. Hi, Brenda! Lots of people had problems trying to play the video so I took it down. It was an old song. The video wouldn't play for everyone.

  12. i love the saying "i'm waiting on God" ... it is something that i love to say lately ... u know how you see others who are where you wanna be .. not that you wanna exactly where they are ... but that you wish for your life to find that path ... where you can breathe a bit .. i know we are always learning and growing ... but my hubby has had enough stress at work ... i keep saying we gotta find the positive, we gotta stand strong in that you have a job ... u know what i mean? we are growing in the Lord. always learning ... hoping to improve and be different than yesterday. u have a great week.

  13. Yes indeed, that is definitely true. I have seen it often.

    (I have attempted to answer the question "why is space dark?").

    God bless, Sandi.
