Are you sure that all what you ask to God to give you is fair?

In Cristian religion, people can go to church , and can let there a paper where they write all what to ask from God, is like a pray, and priest read all this papers every Friday, 6 weeks. I never use this kind of communication with God, i like to talk in my mind with Him and ask what i want to come true. But once, because my father had a very good friend who was priest i had occasion to read few letters, where people ask something from God. And i saw there a lot of wishes who they want to change theirs life. so, people ask something for kids, for school, almost all for health, for love, marriage....but, because are crazy people too, are many who ask absurd things.i ll give you few examples. One, want to ask God to give a big amount of money to lottery, other want for this kid to learn very fast English(how stupid can somebody be to think that God will listen this), other want other car, red one, are people who ask the God to make something bad for theirs gone lovers, i remember one who ask to God to make him much smarter, because want a new job. you can imagine what must to read that priest every Friday? many are rational, but many are just stupidity. Can be fun, but in my opinion is sad, very sad that people believe that they can ask all this stupid things. Whe you pray to God, and ask him something, what kind of things do you ask?

God does not satisfies wishes, in christian religion is supposed that God gives you what you deserve.

This is what we want to think, we can t know how God give us something, He have His rules, in what He give or what He take.

Hi icesmilea! You are right, we have a tendency to ask and pray God for many of our desires. We also wish that why cannot they be like us or think like us or behave like us. We should also give a thought to this point, if they turn more worse, then what will happen. This probably gives us a lesson that we should feel contended with whatever we have and with whom we stay (our family members etc.) and thank God for His favour. Contentment in life is very necessary, if we continue to crib and always think about shortcomings in our life, it will be difficult to be happy for us. Good Post!

When I pray to God, I always ask for health and safety for my family, friends. I don't know if God likes to listen to my prays. I think we should not ask God to do something for ourselves because our life is given by God, he certainly is protecting and caring us all the time. Everyting we own, life, fortune, love, marriage, family etc are debited by God. We have the responsibility to follow God's arrangement of every step. Maybe, the only thing we should pray is, do more and more work and never ask why or payments. I think God will smile and then payments will come into our accounts in a suprised way. -.-

I am not really a believer right now. But I want to be. I bought some books about christianity and I was deeply affected by them. I had no belief before I knew God. Sometimes I lost myself and fell into sadness. I had no idea who I can ask for help. When I was a freshman in university, I accidentally met a Malaysia alumni and we became friends soon. She is a honest christian and invited me to join the Christian too. Because of some personal reason, I refused. A few months later, she went back to her motherland and told her Korea friend to continually persuade me. But that girl also failed. Long story to be short, now, I want to be a believer, but I have no way to take part in because here isn't any church or priest in our city. So, I have to buy some books to read, to feel God's existing.
