[quote=Anonymous]Many Christians are taught to pray for things --for themselves and others. People who have the experience of getting what they pray for may think they deserve it and assume God will always answer their prayers. It does not occur to them that it may have been a matter of luck or that God does not choose to answer all prayers from all people, or that sometimes the answer is "no." Then later, they pray for something important (like a job) and it doesn't happen - or doesn't happen in the preferred timeframe. They are confused and wonder why God is denying them. Other people routinely pray, but don't see it as a means of getting what they want. That would be nice, of course, but prayer is viewed more as a way of getting closer to God or simply getting calm during a troubling time. Those less demanding people won't feel let down as much because their expectations are not so high.[/quote]
