I feel like your all setting yourselves up for disappointment by all this positive behavior.
I'm really not trying to be negative. It's always a bad thing to expect the best. This is life, she likes to keep you on your toes. Someone has to be pessimistic, but maybe preparing for the worst thing, saves you additional stress if things do end up..ya know dead. Things dont always end up great in prayer land. When it's your time, it's your time. Approach it any way that makes you feel better. - Devil's Advocate |

When it's your time, it's your time. Approach it any way that makes you feel better. - Devil's Advocate You see, no one needs a dose of reality. Everyone on the planet is quite aware of the possibility of COVID’s potential...and for that matter, life’s ultimate ending; no one gets out of here alive... For those who believe, prayer is not wishful thinking, cute little phrases to make people feel good or pretend everything is alright. And you’re kind of right in that not everything goes well in “prayerland”...from the human point of view, anyway. Anything God let’s happen might be deemed an unanswered prayer. To me, it’s not that; it’s an answer of “not now” or possibly a “no.” If the worst happens, then God’s still got me, and His ways are greater than my ways. I accept that. The Bible is full of stories where things didn’t go as people wanted them to (Jonah’s whale, Paul’s thorn in the flesh, David and Jonathan, Moses and the Promise Land, Peter and his denial...on and on), and yet God’s plans were perfectly carried out anyway. The greater story here is that God is the Alpha and the Omega—He started creation and He has a way forward through this fallen world with the promise of everlasting life for those who accept Christ’s sacrifice for their sins. It requires God-given faith, though. That was a bit preachy; my apologies. But please don’t read any arrogant/snarky tone in this text. I just want you to know where my hope truly lies. Now, feel free to PM me if you want to discuss belief systems/science/faith/etc., as I’d be happy to discuss those further with you. After all, if I believe it to be true, no sense keeping the good news under a rock. ;)

But things have ended up great in prayer land. I've witnessed great things happening with prayer. But like I told ozzie earlier, it doesn't guarantee that we get what we want. That's not what prayer is. Prayer is just communication. Prayer is just you chatting with God. Do I make requests to God? Yes, but it doesn't mean I'm going to get what I want. Have I gotten what I've prayed for? Yes at times I have. And there are many times I haven't received what I've asked for. But do I give up on God? Hell no! |

All that Ozzie said, all the time. Prayer doesn’t prevent or make problems go away every time, but it helps ppl with any mountain to climb. It also keeps us from living in fear. I’m not out licking door handles to tempt fate here, but Mrs trooper and I agree, if our names are written in the book now, we have to deal with it.

Definitely don’t lick door handles (do not put the Lord your God to the test)! ;)
