A man prayed every night to win the lottery, finally out of desparation when things got real bad he started shouting at God. Finally God Spoke to him, Son, I understand, but can you at least buy a ticket?
You have free will, God will not just give you things. You have to demostrate faith and back it with action. If you dont get it right then you learn from it and try again. God is the opportunity you have everyday to live. There are no promises beyond you will be saved when you accept him. You have to find and use your talents. Doubt in yourself is a mockery of faith. Fear is the illusion of the devil. Trials are just a part of life. Sometimes you cant be strong until you learn what it is like to be weak. Speak what you want, not what you dont want. Your mind does not know the difference and you will think, act, and achieve what you think about the most. Find a way or find an excuse. Blame God or take responsibilty for your own actions. Sometimes you have to prove you are worthy of success. Success is paved with failures. You have not failed until you fail to keep tring. Stop whining!!!! Focus on finding a way, and less on finding an excuse!!!

You may be 'praying and praying' but perhaps your prayers are 'the wrong way to pray' for what you need or want. Most people think they can 'demand' that God 'gives them' what they say they want ... but what God does is 'send them what they truly need.' I had a friend whose job was full of very 'trying people' so every night he prayed to God to 'teach him patience' when working with those people. One day he realized that those 'trying people' were God's answer to his prayer ... he HAD TO BE PATIENT with those people because they NEEDED IT ... and after he had that realization, suddenly the people he had to deal with at work weren't nearly as 'trying' as they had been while he was praying. That's a TRUE STORY, not just a 'cautionary tale' but I told it to you to 'illustrate' why when you are 'asking God to send you something GOOD,' he'll send you something that may seem to be VERY BAD. God is a very SERIOUS being who loves a 'good joke' ... so if I were you, I'd 'take a good LONG LOOK at my 'prayers' and see if I couldn't find a way to 'pray better' and to perhaps get what you REALLY WANT and REALLY NEED, and not just 'the nice things' you may think you deserve. And if you keep 'getting the worst' from God when you 'pray for the best' maybe what God is telling you is that you aren't 'as good' as you think you are, and you may need to start looking at 'life' in a 'different way.'

God tests us everyday!! The negative situations happening in your life right now, will make you stronger as a person, and help you better understand that life is not always peaches and cream. Also, when you pray, you must have faith, and no doubt in your heart. You must crawl before you walk. Also, remain positive throughout, for future will be behold a plethora of blessings. So keep your head up, and never stop believing in him.

I don't know what bad things you're talking about, and I'm sorry for that, but try to be more thankful for the good things you DO have. Are you healthy? Do you have food in your belly every day? Do you have good friends? I know it's hard, but when you pray, instead of ASKING for something, be thankful for the good things you want as if you already have them....that's called the power of intention, and it does work.

You know why? No one is listening. People will tell you that you go through crap to make you stronger, but what about all those little babies and kids getting beat and molested. How are they being made stronger? Quit praying for miracles and make things good for yourself.

there is no longer something you're able to do relating to the way your mom feels. purely provide her time to regulate. She is your mom in spite of your sexual determination. She would not might desire to like it and you will possibly be able to't assume her to easily settle for it without qualms regardless of each thing you're in straight forward terms 15 years previous. Are you her in straight forward terms baby? she may be afraid of a destiny without grandchildren. She might think of your purely puzzled on the 2d. purely wait and notice along with her. i'm specific her love for you is superior than her dislike of your sexual determination. your loved ones will come around in time. Church won't make you like women as a replace of boys. you are able to no longer Exorcise homosexuality. permit her understand how unhappy her judgment makes you. permit her understand how undesirable her disapproval hurts you. Ask her if she'd desire you to be gay and happy or immediately and depressing. I wager her desire to your happiness finally wins the conflict. good success!

God wouldn't send bad stuff your way because He's mad at you. Its just life... everyone gets into hard times, and you have to keep relying on Him to carry you through. Don't abandon your faith because you think you're suffering needlessly... think of it as a test.

Bad things happen to good people.
God doesn't get mad at people, for what?
Just be patient, God doesn't work on your time.
