Hi This sounds like a stupid question but what happens when you pray for someone or something - obviously good. I used to pray for the world to be in peace, for all kinds of situations to change re: wars. poverty. Then pray for people and there was nothing changed. In terms of myself - I prayed for better work, and friends - believed it, had faith and nothing. I know that there are people who have had real miracles , so I dont doubt that it works but I wondered as to how. If it doesnt work for someone, is it that the person doesnt know how to pray or is praying withoout belief?

Hey mala I'm an agnostic so I can't help you with your question. I see that you have several similar unanswered questions posted in this forum and the spirituality forum.
If you belong to a church you might want to ask a pastor or teacher these questions.
I don't think this is a stupid question at all.
Good luck in your quest for knowledge.

Unfortunately, from a religious (Christian) point of view, we can't discuss or talk about it on the open forums.....only through PM or in the 2 Christian social group forums (At Jesus Feet, or SOUL FOOD).

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
