Unanswered prayers
I wonder, why pray? Is God a stubborn God who needs to be coaxed and cajoled so that He would finally listen? What about if someone has prayed for years and not received answers? Does it mean that their faith was not as strong enough as someone whose prayers were answered? Or does it depend on the person praying - God will answer based on who is praying? I've had unanswered prayers. I prayed for my mother to be healed. I read and claimed every promise in the bible about healing. But, God chose to call her home. I've wondered about my significance - if my prayers were important or earnest enough. Philippians 4: 6-7 Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. God has not promised to answer everything we ask of Him
