The power of prayer
Fabrice Muamba says his survival is a miracle
On the morning of the game I prayed with my father and asked God to protect me - and he didn't let me down. I am walking proof of the power of prayer." |

Well the god could have prevented him having the heart problem in the first place:lol: Still it may have been god that put the heart specialist in the crowd;)

Gods..... I believe they were ancient Aliens:) Doubt they would help anyone unless they were here now.

And that sums up the problem with religion - just mans greed and jealousy wrapped in the justification of a god!
Jo xxx Yes, you're correct about man's greed & jealousy. The biggest risk God took was in giving us free choice; for some, that means not believing. If He steps in to prevent a child getting run over for instance, or prevents someone getting cancer,then He has to do it every time & for everybody in the world where there is a risk of an accident or death. He'd be pretty busy!!!! And we would be like robots. |
Re: The power of prayer
I've always believed it's easier in life if you believe in something, for most people that means a God of some sort, and some means of 'praying'.
Even if you just pray for the survival of Glasgow Rangers, it's still a belief to cling on to. Or what's wrong with hugging a tree? Or standing at Stonehenge in a shroud? Or talking to dead people in a cemetery? If you believe in nothing, what's point of being? |

Of course if he really believes that he is walking proof of the power of prayer then he must also believe that if he hadn't prayed he would have died. Not a nice God this one... That's the power of prayer. Otherwise, each time we pray with a shopping list of things we'd get instant healing. There'd be no point to life in that case. We could sin like mad & then repent in prayer.........till the next time! |

Sorry, but you shouldn't be blaming God. What happened to him was a personal experience which may have made him see life in a totally different way.

Re: The power of prayer
So if you don’t believe in religion abound, in belief and faith and holy ground,
Fair enough you’re allowed your choice, your view, ideas and personal voice, But for millions who lay at deaths dark door, for the sick and the weak and the lost and poor, Let them pray for a little relief; allow them something like belief. For when it is all is done and said, who can speak for the dead? You my friend with scribe so bright, with tales of war and such delight, Or the Lord our God whom many believe, the many in grief, the many who grieve, Let’s leave to them to decide I say, to not believe, or believe and pray.... |

Yep, I'd agree with that!!! Jo xxx |
