How you doing?

Thanks for asking, KJ. The path is rough and continues with no end in sight.

That said, we were never promised a charmed life without pain but--what really matters--that He would be with us all the way. I count myself blessed for that.

Your prayers meant a lot. A thousand thanks.


As for me, I would like to have some glimmering of how prayer could be effective that would be concordant with my current cosmoconception.

So for now I will hold off on the prayers; however, I did sweep my driveway earlier today.

It seems you might believe in the power of prayer.

May I ask what is the foundation from your POV for such a belief?

No.


As for me, I provisionally believe in the power of seeking and/or "relaxing into It" without verbalization.

Keep this in mind: in Christ, we have peace, but we live in a world at odds with Christ. So the world, our flesh, and the devil are at odds with Christ. I heard a lady discuss our sinful nature; she compared it to a rip tide in the water, which is always trying to pull us into sin. There is an end in sight, but in this life, we are called to walk with the Lord who overcame it all, and we find peace with Him, not as the world gives, which relies on our circumstances, but from God. So trust the Lord who gave Himself for us, that He will never leave us or forsake us.

It isn’t easy, but when we are weak, He is strong.


No. Sorry!


Yes, I do believe in Prayer and have seen it work in my life time.

Some may call it coincidence but I do believe in Prayers and that they can work.

Everything that is happening in the world right now has actually been predicted in the Bible hundreds of years ago.

The why all these bad things happen has been a question over the generations.

Go on then, evidence that statement.

Which part of the bible predicted everything that is happening in the world right now? Be specific.

I guess there could be a placebo effect when praying to a non existent deity.

@Ghost,

The Bible teaches in Hebrews 1:3 that “The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being…” Jesus reveals who God the Father is. Jesus would say to an atheist just what He said in John 8:19, “If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”

Atheism and agnosticism are distinct concepts related to belief in God, but they address different aspects: atheism is a lack of belief in God, while agnosticism is the view that the existence or non-existence of God is unknowable. Essentially, an atheist doesn't believe in God, while an agnostic believes it's impossible to know if God exists.

You are beyond understanding even if it was explained you would still doubt! That is fine you are not alone there are many of you in existance.
