God/ Jehovah is very real to me. He is my best friend and I talk to him all the time, in praise and requests.
Yes, he does answer my prayers frequently and in ways I know it's not coincidental.
We as a family have been hit hard by problems and an accident last year that without his intervention, we would have been killed by an 18 wheeler near our Crossville Tennessee home. (13 miles away on interstate 40 near mile marker 108 west bound. {It totaled our car})
Yes we pray all the time.........Thanks and do have a great day!

I pray to have a relationship with Him as well as to ask Him to do His will in my life. Of course there are times when everybody uses prayer to ask for something, but there is nothing wrong with that. We just have to make sure it is His will for our life.
Prayer is how we communicate with God, and it is always exciting when we see our prayers answered. The hardest part for me is the waiting. It's tough sometimes to wait for God to answer, but we need to realize that He will answer on His time schedule, not ours.
Prayer should be an integral part of every Christians life. I can honestly say that we can never pray too much, but it seems like a lot of us pray too little. I know I am guilty of that.

I'm actually pretty content with the things I have in my life. When I pray it is to have a relationship with my Father and to ask Him to help me mature as a Christian. I am always asking Him to show me the error of my ways and to correct me and I ask for His protection over my children.

I always prayed for others. When I did pray for me I always asked for God's will. I also would pray that i grew closer and that I would grow in his word.

We pray that God will have his perfect will in our lives, God always supply the things we need, But not all the things we want.

I pray to fellowship with God to keep building my relationship with Him, thanking Him for all He's done in my life.
God already knows what we need, so I just pray that His Will is done as He sees fit.

I pray for His help and guidance in understanding and accepting His will for me. I will not say that I have never asked Him for something, because I have, but I keep in mind that He knows what's best for me and if what I ask is not in accordance with His will, then He will refuse me.

Neither. If you can find your inner peace through prayers then God has certainly touched you. But if praying stills leave you in distraught, then you should detach yourself from reality to give yourself more time to reflect.

--THE PURPOSE of any conversation with anyone you want as a friend cannot be one sided, for ones wishes, desires, needs without a reciprocation on our part!
--SHOULD THAT NOT be so especially so between us & God? This caution is firmly expressed:
(James 4:2-3) “. . . YOU desire, and yet YOU do not have. YOU go on murdering and coveting, and yet YOU are not able to obtain. YOU go on fighting and waging war. YOU do not have because of YOUR not asking. 3 YOU do ask, and yet YOU do not receive, because YOU are asking for a wrong purpose, that YOU may expend [it] upon YOUR cravings for sensual pleasure.”
--NO DESIRE for true friendship with God , no true answer or benefit in prayer tfrom him!
