[quote=Anonymous]For example, praying that someone recovers from something tragic - and asking for prayers. Is God not all-knowing? Does God not already know of the situation people are praying about? Would prayer change God's mind about intervening? Why would a God *need* prayer to change a circumstance? Does God need the prayers of people - and if so, why? Is God's default status not compassionate, or do people pray so that an unknid God shows compassion and mercy? I don't understand it. I understand prayer as a form of meditation, and the benefit that it can do for someone to calm their own mind or to "center" their stress and anxiety. But I don't understand prayer to a God to intercede. Can someone explain this to me? [/quote]
