Faith has something to do with it too.
There's a story about a ward, probably in Utah, that met to pray for rain because all the crops were dying. There were no clouds or any sign of rain, but they gathered outside and prayed. Clouds gathered, and it started pouring, and people started running for shelter. All of them left, but the bishop and one little girl, who asked the bishop if he wanted to share her umbrella.
So, it goes both ways. If you believe.
