I don't know why anyone would choose to believe that God can answer our prayers or fix our fate...lets consider all of the innocent children who suffer in our world, some brutally murdered and tortured by their own parents. Don't you think if God could save anyone or protect anyone He would help the innocent children??? My 80 yr old neighbor, who knows how I feel on this topic, came to me one day and said, "I was driving in my car and I lost control of the wheel, but by the grace of God I did not crash and I was saved." I said, "I would call that lucky." If God could go around saving all the old people from crashing their cars then surely he could save some children from getting raped or murdered, right???

For me, it is much easier to believe that God can't help us here on earth, but he loves us and wishes us the best!!!
