How do you know that God did not help you? Because you did not get the outcome that you wanted? Have you never experienced that sometimes something that you really wanted at one point in life, you were glad not to have been given, at a later point?
God always looks at your long term interests. I hope that the day will come when you will see why this experience was appropriate, how you may have grown through it, or what you have learned from it.
It would be sad if you closed your heart to the light just because you do not understand God's actions. With best wishes.

Its not that if we pray and ask for some thing God will definitely Give it to us.
Just like some times Children cry a lot to the mother or father to get something. But Parents see a much bigger picture then what the child sees..
Still the credit of the child is that it remains surrendered to the parents as that is the best course for him.
When we approach to God and take his shelter and pray to him, God already starts seeing how we can be saved and go back to him. Even if we pray and don't ask any thing, God will already give us what is needed.
If you keep patient and pray and ask to God, to show you, why that particular prayer was not answered, then God will definitely show you. And then you will be able to appreciate God even more.

So you know whats best and god doesn't? I'm sorry that bad things happened to you but just because you prayed and god didn't give you the answer you wanted means god hates you and will not help you? God loves all creatures equally. That means the mosquito that gave you that nasty bite gets as much love as you who thinks that god didn't help you because you prayed you wouldn't get a bug bite. What is good for some may appear evil towards you. This is only for god to decide, not you or your prayers.

Wow!!!! You know Job, in the Bible. Job went through alot to prove to the Devil, that Job was a great and loyal man. who loved God. Maybe God is putting you through test right now. And you have to stay strong in Faith. So he will know that he can give you any task and you will not be broken. Hope and Faith, is all you need. I dont what it was you needed help in. But I see you got through it. You may think you got through it on your own, but you didnt. You had help. Becuase your not dead, and dont seem to be hurt. But it made you stronger, it made ready for your next test. Then God will grant you the glory of a great testimony, and maybe many great works. You always see Christians and think they never went through nothing. You know what Jesus went through, well for you to understand, you must go through things. Please dont lose Hope, God is there. All the time. And the reason we think he always helps bad people is for the same reason he stood up for Mary Magdelan, because we all down the bad people, just because there bad in the open, but we all fall short we all are bad. But God knows you got it, but He will be there when you fall. When your scared No. Because we shouldnt have fear. But he is there. and the Devil knows you want to follow Christ. So sorry to say, but now he is after. Because the devil is a liar. And he is out to destroy, and break all communication with you and God.
Your okay, God Loves you.
Take care.

First of all I'm not understanding what you mean by "he didn't help me when I was in passion?"
Never the less let me say this. Did your biological father give you everything you wanted and did he let you behave anyway you desired when you were growing up?
You see, God is our heavenly Father and just because we pray for what we desire doesn't necessarily mean he will answer those prayers. He wants what is best for us. Bad things will happen to you all your life, but you must remember, God has his reasons. God will fulfill our needs, but not our greeds. He knows what's best for you at all times and many times unanswered prayers are a blessing. Read your Bible and seek him daily. He will never leave you or forsake you.
Believe and recieve
Doubt and do without
God bless you and hang in there!

In the movie “Ray,” a movie about the life of the blind singer Ray Charles, there is a scene where Ray as a young boy, shortly after developing his blindness, falls down and desperately cries out for his mother to help him up. Just a few feet away, his mother with tears rolling down her face remains silent and motionless, not letting Ray know she is near, nor helping him. She knew what Ray needed most in that moment was to learn to get up himself, so he might be better prepared for his future. And though she may have seemed distant to Ray at the time, she was right by his side. This is how God is often to us. While we may not see Him, He has never left our side. For He has even said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” (Heb 13:5)
As for those who have told you that the reason God has not answered your prayers is because of your sins, they would be wise to read the story of Job - and learn from the folly of Job's friends. The story of Job would also be a good one for you to read as it tells the story of one who suffered great adversity but in the end received far greater blessings. And though he went through a time of despair and doubt, he never cursed God during his time of trouble, even though God had seemingly abandoned him.
I pray that you may be inspired by the wisdom of the Scriptures and comforted by the unconditional and unfailing love of God. And above all, hold close the words of Jesus, when He said, "In the world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world."

God uses the bad times to show your true colors. Jesus didn't live an easy life, why should you? Deciding you hate God after a tough spiritual battle is exactly what Satan wants you to do. Don't just flop out on God like someone who changes their beliefs to suit their need. You are there for God, to serve him. It is better to wait out the storm rather than wimp out on a test.

These are the answers you will receive.
1. God works in mysterious ways.
2. God answers all prayers, sometimes the answer is yes, sometimes no, sometimes it's maybe.
3. Jesus died for your sins, blah, blah, blah
4. Read the Bible,
5. Pray
The reality of it is that God is just another myth. There have been millions of Gods created by humans in an attempt to explain the unexplainable.
To help with your pain,
1. Talk with people who love you .
2. Get into counseling if the pain is severe and/or long lasting.
3. Do good things for yourself to try to take your mind off the pain.
4. Remind yourself that this too shall pass.

Like the fire of a furnace hardens and tempers steel, so the trials we face in life strengthen and develope our character. God has a plan for each of us and that means that sometimes we must endure pain and hardships to learn the lessons that God would have us learn in order to grow in spirit and understanding. WE all suffer growing pains. QWe all sin and fall short of our expectations but God is loving and quick to forgive and restore us to wholeness through Christ jesus.

You do realize that God does what He thinks is right. Maybe what you asked for wasn't in His plan for you. Maybe He just spared you from a catastrophe. You shouldn't pout like a child that didn't get her way...be glad that He cares about you so much and that He even takes the time to listen to your prayers. Maybe He's answering you, but it's not what you want to hear.
