My Inner (or Supernaturally Outer) Turmoil - How I Get Over 'Most Prayer-Proclaimers Making Me Sick'

Tweet

Prayer does two things---reminds you that 'The Inciter- & Controller of All Existing Things We Humans Can't Control' is rearranging things' positions to put you exactly where you need to be, and (the "wrong" kinds of prayers) tell other people that they need to change their position! I see 'that second kind of prayer' ALL THE TIME on Facebook! People seem to be changing "prayer" from 'private conversations with God' to 'votes called-in on "American Idol" (you know, one of those contest-shows that claims to weigh its decisions on "whom the people call-in and vote-for").' A friend says `e's been diagnosed with a life-threatening disease, and--rather than telling `m to "Have Faith in God" or "Trust Creation's Processes" etc.--people tell `m "Well, I'm prayin` for ya!" etc. And my 'natural intellect'--armed with Jesus' http://biblehub.com/interlinear/matthew/6-5.htm "Be not like the hypocrites, for the only effect that their prayers have is 'that people know the hypocrites can pray'"--wants to erupt in anger & remind them all of this. But my 'spiritual enlightenment' sees that the "prayer-list proclamations" exist to tell 'us prophets' (we who hear 'God's voice' and pass the message to others) who needs to hear/be-reminded of 'which part of the message.' And the message most of the 'threatened by disease' need to hear: 'God gave you the perfect system ... maybe it's been damaged by your environment and 'some small indulgeances you didn't think would harm you,' but God trusts you to fix your environment or 'take a break' from the indulgeances and to let the system clean itself out. Just like my problem with the 'proclaimers'---my main worry there is that 'the person being prayed-for' will stop "obeying Our Creator" and ... I don't know, 'refuse to do anything because he trusts that our imaginary-guardian does everything.' But--as the nature of gravity (not God ... though God did create gravity) pulls everything back down as far as it needs to go--the nature of the body's systems (immune-, circulatory-etc.) pulls it to be as clean as it needs to be.
