Zone1 I ask my father and stepmother to pray for me...

[Blackrook]

My father and stepmother are very devout Catholics who pray the rosary every day.

When I feel the need, I ask them to pray for me.

Sometimes I pray directly to God, sometimes to Jesus, sometimes to Mother Mary, Saint Joseph, or my name saint Thomas More.

When we ask others to pray for us, there's nothing wrong with that, whether they are people you know (family and friends) or people who live in heaven.

Prayer is good. In prayer, man talks and God listens.
Even better to meditate directly in communion with God.
In that, God talks and man listens.

Prayer is good.

Even if nothing happens.

Knock and it shall be opened to you.

Seek and ye shall find.

Ask and you shall receive.

That's Jesus's promise that prayer causes things to happen.

Yup.

I believe in the power of prayer.

Prayer is so powerful it changed my life three times.

prayer does nothing - is purely artificial if there is change that is caused by having made an effort to accomplish something - the effort to accomplish is what is judged not what is asked for.
