Your god must find that easier than answering the prayer of a starving African child huh?
So Jesus was lying when he said....
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask anything in my name, I will do it.
No, I think Jesus just had an incredible sense of humor:
"Wait'll they read this and pray till they're blue in the face and nothing happens! har! har!"
They don't need a middle man.
Another good question.
I hurt myself so badly I could only laugh it was that bad...maybe 3 yrs ago now.
Oh boy, I was in a pickle and traveling with luggage.
At the train station I rem laughing bec I had to use both hands to lift my leg up onto
my luggage to use as a stool....couldn't take it off either.
Oh, did I do a number on my left hip joint...that had previously been healed in July 2009...
at a Charismatic Church a Christian friend forced me to go to...hahaha. Oh my life...I laugh.
Any way on the train I thought...'Aw, gee...I have got to go back to get a healing!'
When suddenly, while reading 'Masters from the Far East' by Baird Spaulding, c 1899, or a so,
I got SO inspired....I said to God, the Holy Spirit...take your pick...
"Hey, I don't need to go to some healer! YOU heal me right here!!! Thank You!"
LOL...oh what a moment of grace and 100% powerful recognition of the Divine Presence.
Well, you couldn't rub the smile off my face...when I moved my seat, when I got off the train,
as I pulled at my luggage, as I got into a vehicle....LOL...it was completely gone , completely healed...never came back....and I know that pain and how badly I hurt the ligaments or tendons
the inflammation I caused in the socket itself...nerves all firing.
Oh, I was a mess.
Peter didn't 'need' Jesus to walk on water...BUT, he sure did help.
When someone asks for a jump you give it to them...someone else as an intercessor is quite powerful...why would Jesus say when 2 or more gather in my name I am there? I dunno.
Come to think of it:
Is he not there when there is only one? LOL
That's a funny thing he said...makes me wonder if he was misquoted again.
Oh, I may get in trouble for that one, now...
Sure, no problem, Rbbi1.
I'm not ignoring you, MissH, just mulling things over.

That was a considerate post! But, truly...I know people have, lives and actually go away
on summer vacations even!
Never crossed my mind you were ignoring me...
Regarding middle men...and other posts...my input is...sure you don't need
a middle man to help you with math...but it is nice to get help...
but you do not need a middle man, my opinion.
Same with therapy...you can work things out yourself, but it's nice to get the help.
When I read on forums, "Please pray for my dog", a real title....I think, don't post...
"You pray, realize your own connection and power within you."
I do.
Rbbi1 may think I'm terrible...but it's what I think to myself.

No, not at all. Sometimes you wish you could stand on the roof with a bullhorn, don't ya? And of course, we could, but then we'd likely be bothered with those pesky men in the white coats, Amen? Roflol....
