Yes, I pray throughout the day in many forms. I talk out loud to God when I am in the woods, and silently when in the presense of others. I believe in the power of prayer, as in having had prayers answered. Sometimes we are not happy with the results of prayer because the answer may not have been our answer or what we wanted, and so we take that as prayer not answered. But we must always remember it is in that "Thy will be done", not "my will be done". I may not always agree with the answer received, but in the larger scope of far reaching things I do believe that God knows what is best for all of us and has our best interests at heart.

I am good at pretending everything is all right, by just gritting my teeth and just charging ahead and getting through the rough spots, but inside I am afraid of failure and getting critized for things I do. I am hoping someone can help me, or at least understand me.
