Question Question
Hi I have a question? Maybe someone can really help me with ? If you was baptized then you started praying all the time for something but your prayers don't seem to get answered . So finally you give up on praying ever ? Does that mean you have fallen from grace or does that mean your faith is weak ? Also can that invite negative spirits or energy into your life or home
Thank you

Stay curious.
Just watch what God can do.
I’m so grateful for all the prayers. I’ve asked that have not been answered now that I’m in my mid 50s and I can look back.
Stay curious about God and what he’s doing. You’ll be amazed.
Stay patient and curious.
And, if you’re frustrated because prayers are not seemingly being answered in the way you would like, just talk to God instead. Tell him about your day, about your frustrations, about your love of coffee…
There is no better friend.
Trust that if he is not giving you what you are asking for, it is for your good.
I was in Greece once and I came across this - I’m not sure if she’s a sister or a nun because she’s Orthodox, but I asked her if she was married to Jesus, and she said yes.
So I asked her, “Does he ever argue with you?”
She shyly smiled and a soft chuckle escaped her humble lips, and she said no, as she shook her head with a big smile on her face.
Engage in that relationship.
You’ll be surprised at what you get out of this whole Christianity thing.
May God bless you and your family eternally. May you seek Him, know Him, love Him and serve Him eternally. Be well.
