do you think by praying or meditating can help making things better or by respecting and realizing that There is GOD.
When there is really no other way out. Will god be there to help us?

No!

Just ask the people on the Titanic. Ask the Polish people that Hitler put in forced labor camps.

Yes I believe in God. I think that the problem that most people have with your question is that they think that God would make things better for them if He existed. The thing is God gave us 'freewill'. He didn't give it to just those that believed in Him. He gave it to everyone, and this is how they have the right to choose to believe in Him or not.

If freewill is taken away for the sake of one person then it has no meaning any longer. Having it means that there will be good people that have bad things happen to them and even bad people that never have anything but good things happen to them. Still everyone will have the choice of believing and being as He would have them be or not.

I have CHF (congestive heart failure) but God didn't give it to me. I did that all by myself. I know that I should have died in April of 03, why I didn't is a mystery to me. I am grateful for every day that I have had from that point. There are so many things that I want to do and see and feel before I no longer have that opportunity. Time is no longer my friend, but still I try.

God's rewards are in the hereafter, not necessarily in the now. I'm sorry for your sister and family if there is something bad happening to them. I wish that there was a way that you could use your energy to try and help them without blaming God. But as you have freewill you will be the one making that choice. Good luck.

It's really hard when you read and hear about all the bad things going on to innocent people all over the world. Someone had to of been praying at some point for help...but then i'm told these things happen to give me and others more compassion. I have all the compassion one can have..I don't understand why people have to suffer so. If there is a god.
And I'm sorry to hear about your sister and your family...best wishes

there is a reason for everything. Suffering does not happen simply because someone did something bad or they have to 'atone for their sins' or something. We can't understand it. We as human beings are limited in our understanding, and we have a need within all of us for God. We have to realize that we have these needs and desires and only God can fufil us. We have to realize that though Suffering is terrible, it is for a reason. Trust in God. There is no 'magic solution' Praying does not 'make it all better'
God works in mysterious ways, and if you keep faith, you may be suprised how you change. Sometimes the miracles happen not in the way we want it, but they do happen.

when i see the stars at night and the blazing sun in the morning i always tell myself how great the Creator is. Just like the house youre living in ,somebody has to build it.Our universe was wonderfully made. if not,planets will just collide with each other and thats big bang!!haha!. I believed that prayer is a form of communication to God. If for example you have a good friend who is far from you and you keep on communicating constantly with him tru internet or phone ,for sure he can never forget you.the more you talk to God,the more he remembers you.Though,not all prayers are heard by God,some prayers are even detestable to Him.Proverbs 28:9 He that is turning his ear away from hearing the law,-even his prayer is something detestable. which simply means if we do not obey Gods law, for sure He will not be please with us.Just like our parents,when we disobey them,im sure were grounded for a week.....i have so many times experienced Gods help during my deepest darkest night. but how can you love God,if you dont know Him?so may i suggest that you first know who is the one true God...for sure he has a name...

Yes. There is a God. He is there for all of us. All you have to do is Trust that He is driving the bus and we are all riders on that bus. Trust in that everything that happens in your life is for your ultimate benefit even if you do not understand why. Trust in God that all the good and the "seemingly" bad happens for a reason and a purpose. In God We Trust. That's what that means.

maybe he/she isnt helping you/ya'll because that is gods will. if one believes in a all knowing superior creator, god, then it is not up to that individual to question his/her gods will. we can not comprehend perfection nor can we see the "big picture".

what do you believe is the question? faith is a deeply personel decision. some things you must decide for yourself.

i can make you believe there is no god or i can spin words to make you drop to your knees and prey; BUT what do you believe?

never ever get god confused with religion. look at your hand. look at a tree. look at an insect and tell me you dont see god there. BUT that insect has nothing to do with any organized church! do not be confused!

all prayers are answered; but sometimes the answer is NO. think about it.

Yes. 100%, GOD EXISTS. It may seem to you right now that HE is not helping your family. I may not be able to understand completely how you feel right now. But somehow, I can relate to your situation. Know, that you are not alone in your suffering in this world. While you are still in your journey on earth, you will experience countless misfortunes and sufferings. And, nobody is exempted on this one. Each one of us have our own burden to be carried. They just come in different forms. Of course, you will experience happy moments, too. But, earth is just your temporary dwelling, and it is imperfect, that's why you experience all kinds of difficulties. Do not stop believing in HIM, and calling out to HIM for help for "HE DOES NOT FAIL ON HIS PROMISES". There is no such thing as "NO WAY OUT" in GOD. HIS help may seem delayed to you. But, GOD's delay does not necessarily mean a denial. It just that his timetable is different from yours. Your human nature may demand for that help you direly need, but GOD knows that your family is far more stronger than anybody, who knows you, might be thinking. In HIS own time, I strongly believe that you will understand what I'm talking about. As I've said, earth is a temporary and imperfect dwelling place. And your time here on earth is only a comma, as compared to eternity. I suggest that you read the book entitled "A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE" by RICK WARREN. I do not want to advertise anybody, it's just that this book is helping me also a lot right now. Like you, I've also experienced doubting GOD's existence several times already. But, right now, there's no doubt about it. HE TRULY EXISTS. And HE has good plans for all of us believers. The Bible warns the unbelievers " He will pour out His anger and wrath on those who live for themselves,"

Just think about it, its something that someone made up so people could respect each other and be more kinder and whatnot. God isn't real, science has disproven that so no. God never helped me in my time of need.
