[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, this is one thing that I struggle with myself.

The last church I went to, the pastor was talking about how the way we pray makes a difference, that there're correct and incorrect ways of praying. I broke down right then and there, thinking that I must not have prayed correctly b/c why else did my mom suffer so much from her cancer and die with such agony and indignity. Then I got really angry at the idea that if you pray incorrectly, God will refuse to listen.

I don't know the answer. And I suspect nobody really does. [/quote]

Let me try.

God doesn't really exist in the way people think and cancer is a chain of events that happens inside the body.  God does not give people cancer anymore than [b]God heals people with cancer[/b].

Does God dictate the laws of physics or does God follow then?  If God dictates the laws of physics than surely we would see miracles that are exceptions.  We don't  [/quote]

So what is the purpose of praying for people with illnesses? Just to make people feel like they are doing something?[/quote]

The purpose is for the person praying to meditate an gain some introspection.  Isn't that all prayer is?[/quote]
