When is the last time you read the Bible? He has answered your prayers already. Just like everything else in the world, you have to know how and where to find the answer. With you being so frustrated, are you doing all of the talking when you pray "communicate" with God, or have you forgotten to listen too?

Of course you are forgiven. Ripping pages out of the bible is no worse than ripping pages out of a dictionary (except a dictionary is not fiction). Apologize to your girlfriend and then apologize to yourself for making the mistake of thinking getting drunk will help you. Mistakes are a part of our experience on this earth and God wants you to learn from them. Perhaps next time you are frustrated, make a different choice. Find a more appropriate way to express your anger. Talk to someone you can trust about your feelings. I don't know about God not listening to your prayers. I know alot of the time we pray for things that we aren't meant to have. It doesn't mean he isn't listening. The best thing to pray for is the resolve to get through any situation ( serenity prayer). Blessings to you.

Yes, He willstill forgive you. He will always forgive you as long as you want to be forgiven... if not, why would He make Jesus die on the cross?
All you gotta do is repent... and abut listening to your prayers, are you sure you're faithfully asking for you what pray for? If you ask but don't believe it won't happen. Also, He will give you what your heart really desires and what's good for you. Don't think that if you ask him for example for a bunch of money to spend on a party He's gonna give you that. He will do what's best for you and in His time.
You just have to stay with Him and be faithful, everything else will come along.

There is an old Greek saying that when God really wants to punish you, He gives you what you pray for?
What are you praying for? Is it really good for you? You may not know the answer OR you may think you know the answer.
When I was at my lowest, a dear friend told me to look hard for the small miracles happening in my life. I did. I found them. Then, to my surprise the miracles got bigger and bigger! They are still happening and I am so grateful. Don't forget to thank God for every good thing in your life.
Hang in there. Talk to someone you trust. My prayers are with you.
And yes...God will forgive you...just ask.

If you believe in God... then believe this.
Just because you ask God for something doesn't mean that His answer will always be Yes, sometimes God says no.
So, to say He never listens to your prayers is wrong. Maybe the answer is just NO.
Good Luck

it heard sometimes to believe in God because it seems like he never listened and answers our prayers. but think about this he is one God and we are all his children and imagine listening to millions of people asking for something different each mint. sometimes God can't give us what we want all the time and there are always reasons for it. He will forgive you if you ask for his forgovness.

yes, he will....he does listen to your prayers, but God has different ways of answering them.....a yes, a no, a maybe, and a wait....it also depends on what you ask Him, if you're asking him for sex, drugs, money, or any other thing that is of this world that isn't honoring Him, the answer will always most likely be "no".

God always listens to prayer, sometime the answer is no.

You may think he's not listening but he always knows whats best for you. I know what your going through but he can forgive you all you have to do is ask for it and truly mean it and try to change i know it sounds like a lot but it is worth is in the end..
