Ever feel sorry for...

[b fold the truth]

Anyone ever feel sorry for turning to God when you are down?

I pray every day and always ask God for guidance, love, patience, protection, and to please forgive me...but I am not always doing the hard praying that I should be. Lately I have been under a lot of stress and emotion and I have also been talking to God a lot more.

It has been one of those week or two times when you start praying and end up crying by the time it is over...just asking for help, to take the pain away, to take away the fear, to help my life, and to guide me in the direction that he wants me to go.

I just finished praying...a very hard prayer before bed...and felt a little guilty. Do I ONLY really turn to God when I am in dire need?

Just something to think about...

well i feel about the same you must feel, i know whatcha talkin' about but i don't feel 'sorry' or 'guilty' or anything, i don't even think someone is 'listening' lol, it's just a way to relieve myself (i can see the jokes comin now... )

Nope. But I have noticed that people in trouble usually "find" god.
Prayer wont solve your problems confronting them and taking action to correct them will.

You should recognize God on a 24/7 basis, not just in times of need. Be mindful. peace

I'm the exact opposite bfold, when things are bad I curse at God like a mofo. When things are good I sing out praise like no ones business. I talk to God a lot. Sometimes he puts me on hold and that can piss me off too.

When I pray I always give thanks for what I do have first.

I always feel kinda sad when people say things like "I'll say a prayer for you tonight." Why wait until you're ready for bed to talk to God? I talk to God and pray all day long! I truly always feel Him with me.

I always say a prayer of thanks for what I have or for answered prayers too...it usually helps me to put problems into perspective...

I hope you find then answers you're looking for B Fold.

God will do whatever it takes for him to get your eyes on him. I went to chruch yesterday for the first time in a couple years and I loved it. I realized how much I missed it from going all the time when I was a kid and a teen until now. Some people only talk to God when they need him and push him to the side when they dont. Thats when he does what he has to do to get your attention again.
