It's like when you really really really want something to happen, like say.. You really want to get tickets to a gig. Then you say something like; "Please help me to get these tickets!" You don't have to necessarily address anyone, just be very sure that you really want whatever it is your asking for. I don't know, it sounds dumb but it's always worked for me. Maybe 'cause I thank the universe afterwards, too. Hehe. |

I mean, it's not even controlled. You can't just draw result up from that?! I might as well just say, 'Oh yeah, I prayed good tought to a pig and now it's sprouted wings and can fly!' ![]() |

waiting_a_long_time Idiot ![]() Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 540 | depending on what you mean by "work" usually, if a person prays, they are asking for some form of resolution or guidence. they are looking for an answer. from what ive seen and what ive observed, people need to talk about their problems and acknowledge that they exist, and by talking i t through with "god" they can sort through them, and eventually find the answer within themselves, "god" doesn't give them the strength to confront their troubles, they give themselves the strength, they figure it out themselves. "god" is just a crutch, people cling to him in times of need, "god" balences out their world, even makes things easier to understand, when really, they understood all along, but talking to "gods" is what brought the answer or solution out from within. |

dysLEXIa King For A Couple Of Days ![]() Age: 35 Gender: Female Posts: 3542 | Praying gives some people stability. It doesn't give you THINGS necessarily. Like, you can pray for stability or well being, and I think that the higher power you believe in will give you what's needed to acheive that, if his/her will desires to do so. |
Screenager King For A Couple Of Days ![]() Age: - Gender: - Posts: 3082 | I am not religious, so I don't think praying would work, as I don't have the religious faith. |
MintyFreshGeek Idiot ![]() Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 724 | I think praying gives false hope in the sense that they pray therefore they don't have to do anything as it will all be ok because they prayed. People can only make thiungs happen by making them happen themself. Praying is doing nothing but talking to yourself, wishing that something would stop you from having to get off your backside and deal with reality. IMO |
marie9293 Shoot Me, I'm A Newbie ![]() Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 32 | I believe that praying can work, yeah. BUT just because you really want some game console, that does not mean God will snap His fingers and say, "Let there be Xbox." :/ |
