PRAYER

It just occurred to me how contradicting human beings can get. I suddenly remembered about how my non-believer friends used to ask me to pray for them when they were trying to achieve or get something. Getting a job for instance.

The 1st Qn that came to my mind was why they want me to pray to my God for their success? The very fact that they asked from my God, it already means that they subconsciously believe that my God is real, right? If that so, then why do they need my help? I'm not being selfish or unwilling to pray for others. It's just that they've not even tried to pray personally for what they want. They've not tried to get to know my God. They want miracles but they don't wanna believe in His existence. How absurd can it get?

I saw a phrase that strike me after seeing it only once. It was shown after I withdrew some cash from the UOB ATM machine. They added 'Quote of the day' after every transactions. It goes like this 'Don't trouble others with what you can do yourself.' This sentence was told by a person but I can't seem to recall what was his name.

Many people just wanna take the easy way out. We want convenience and so we tend to get others to do our stuff. Often is because they're on the same way so it's more convenient for them to help us etc.

Perhaps it's the lack of responsibility or self-motivation. I feel that we just have to learn to be responsible over our own things. We've to take charge and be in control with the things that we've to do. The more we rely on others, the lazier we get. And the more others won't respect us.

I've learnt. But I'm not saying that I've changed completely. I'm trying to change myself to be more independent. I admit that I leech sometimes. But I believe that some day, I'll be a totally changed person.

-Ask and you shall receive. Prayer and fasting pour down miracles.-
