Not just any prayer mind you as technically we `pray` constantly..." please let me get to work on time / catch that bus......." I`m talking big things that you really set your heart on and the chances of it happening were next to nil......

Sorry if anyone feels bashed by a bible...

Mine would have to be the time when I pray like crazy to win the Euromillions jackpot...! I`ll let you know how I get on.......
There`s lots of small successes but I can`t quote them due to them probably being my own doing and I can`t for the life of me think of any now that don`t seem trivial!

When I was a kid, there was this bike I really really wanted, but my parents didn't have much money, so I knew they wouldn't be able to afford it, so I prayed and prayed and prayed, but no luck, no windfall, the bike would not be mine. Then I realised that god doesn't work that way.....

















So I stole the bike, rode it to church and prayed for forgivness.

I prayed for relief from alcoholism and haven't touched a drop for 4 years, 7 months and 14 days. I do believe I have a higher power but I'm not a church goer.

Praying doesn't get you anywhere, only you can make things happen.

Ah well there you go - if there was a god he'd have answered them all, what with him being all-seeing and all-powerful etc.

God is simply an imaginary friend for grown-ups who can't be seen with Teddy Bears.
