As for prayer, Jesus taught us how to pray. (Did you ever hear of the Lord's Prayer?) All these prayers (people post "prayers sent") for someone to get well, etc., are NOT what the Lord's Prayer says. It says "thy will be done."
“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us” (1 John 5:14).
cAn prayer ignite powder in a Glock if you pull on a dud primer? or cause a perps gun to miraculously fail?
WHAT did the Irish Catholic say when their journey was slowed cause 3 of the 4 Jet engines had quit on the B747...? " I pray the 4th don't go otherwise we will be stuck up here all night'

many a graveyard headstone says stuff like; ..'resting in eternal bliss with God and the angels', etc
then some God fearing living folk say; ' take comfort they have gone to a better place'...
yet rarely would they be willing to trade places with the dead.
