  1. I am far from an unbeliever but I have many questions which I feel uncomfortable asking my fellow churchgoers or even our minister. I feel with this forum I am brave enough to ask and please hope you understand my need. I sometimes feel that God has forgotten me, I say that because I lost a child and I prayed to God to help me and my child but she passed. I felt angry with Him and that when things go well we say He has answered our prayers but when things do not - where is He then? At that time in my life I decided that God could not save my child as she was unwell, nature is cruel sometimes and she had health problems and the doctors could not sort them. By the same token, if she had lived would that not have been due to the doctors skill and not God's invervention? I have come to believe that God cannot save a sick person even though we pray to Him when we are in that situation and thank Him for answering our prayers if they become well, He is given credit for it. Spiritually, he is there and I hope to feel that more strongly than I do at present. I need to feel He is there for me. I hope no-one is offended by my comments, I just need some kind, understanding people to advise me a little. Thank you.
  2. I'm struggling with my relationship with God and have been for many years. My baby was born with some health problems and I prayed and prayed every day in the hospital chapel for God to help me and my baby. She passed away aged 6 weeks and I felt that God didn't hear me and didn't help me. Another Mum on the unit also prayed for God's help and her baby survived and she told me God answered her prayers. Why didn't he answer mine? Sometimes it seems like when the outcome is good after we turn to God we accredit it to God and the power of prayer but when the outcome is not good what then, I question what is it really all about? I have struggled with this for many years and sometimes on Sundays when I am in Church and the minister is telling us to pray to God and listen and he will answer, I feel so sad and wonder, should I be here because I can't feel it Can anyone help me to find some peace. Thanks.
