It's Prayer time! Lets gather here and come boldly to the throne of grace! [Spirituality & Religion]

What is your prayer request? You can write it here, where it is most powerful because when 2 or more gather for prayers He will hear our prayers. If you want to share yours anonoumusly just leave me a message please and I will put it in my prayer journal and pray daily until it is answered.

@SW-User thank you😘

@Carazaa you're welcome. Thank you for a nice thread. Maybe you can answer a question I have, though..If God really cares about humanity, why are there starving children in many countries, abused people, and depression in the world? Second question, do you think he's abandoning us to our own devices? I'm genuinely curious..not trying to be mean.

@SW-User Well thank you for asking. No God has not abandoned us, that's why He gave us Jesus who died for the worlds sins. He is preparing Heaven for those who love Him. Human beings are selfish, greedy, and materialistic, so that's why the world is the way it is! That is not God's fault. That is our fault. But He will help us if we love Him and have faith! Jesus says. "If you ask me anything in my name I will do it" John 14:14

@Carazaa Human beings did not cause childhood leukemia. If there is a God, that's 100% on him. Saying that greedy, selfish, materialistic people are responsible for causing childhood leukemia is ridiculous.

Carazaa · F

@LeopoldBloom I disagree!

LeopoldBloom · M

@Carazaa How did people cause childhood leukemia?

What about tsunamis and earthquakes? Do people cause those, too?

Carazaa · F

@LeopoldBloom God has cursed the world because of our sins, yes, but He hears our prayers if we have faith in Jesus!

LeopoldBloom · M

@Carazaa OK, so you're saying that God causes children and other people to suffer because we offended him.

Your God sounds like a psychopathic demon. If such a God existed, I would resist him with all of my power.

Are you also saying that faith in Jesus protects people from diseases or natural disasters? Because my own observations tell me that isn't true.

Carazaa · F

@LeopoldBloom Sin has global consequences, and Yes God hears our prayers if we are born again. And he will also care for our kids especially if we pray!

LeopoldBloom · M

@Carazaa You're saying that because people aren't Christian, they get hit with a tsunami? That's demented. And I know plenty of people who pray all the time, and their kids still had horrible illnesses or accidents.

Going by my own observations, I'd say you're wrong.
