Does God really answer prayer?
jeromechickenbone:
I usually make a point to be thankful for the good things I do already have, even something as trivial as my bed an apartment...millions and millions of people don't even have that. I usually just pray for strength and happiness, an to help to be a positive person. I don't usually pray for tangible items. And I feel like those prayers do get answered, just not on an obvious way. And sometimes they don't, but I think they don't because we often have lessons to learn, and that's why they aren't met sometimes.
And I def agree that "God" or whatever u wanna call it is not going to just give u things to make your life gravy, that's not the point of us being here in this incarnation at this time and place. Earth is a very difficult place, and the true test is how we as individuals handle the negativity that comes along with living in this prison planet. If u can live without envy, hate, or greed then I think that is the ultimate goal that needs to be met in this existence before we can move on to more utopian place and hang out with the grown ups.

New souls are created all the time. Billions of them all thru the universe, not just earth.
