I'm not sure if this has been brought up before as a subject. It's been a while since I've been on here regularly but I was just reading another post which brought this question to my mind that I've thought of before.
When we say "I will pray or I will be praying for you.. or, you are in my prayers", do you say it and actually do it, and continue to do so until you hear some sort of outcome? Or are you just providing comforting words for the moment?
I know that people pray to God but are there some who pray for God?
He carries a large load.
There is a new service in Israel that will take your tweets to God and print and then take them to put into the wailing wall.
This raises several questions. Does God hear our tweets? Do you need to keep your prayers to under 140 charactors? Can you use abreviations? Will twitter keep a copy of our prayers/tweets forever? Can I just add #God or #prayertoGod (#ptg for short) to my tweets/prayers?

Everybody is in need of spiritual help in their lives. Some of us call out, " help, us God" others I presume call out to Allah etc.
Who do Atheists call out to in their time of need ? To other Atheists?: To themselves? Or do they never need to call out to anyone or any thing?
Any thoughts?
How long since you repeated it?
Do you believe it?
How important do you think it is?
Do you understand it?
My take is rather simplistic; I'll post it later...(It seems to me to contain a whole bucket- full of a lot of ignored Christian truth)
It appears to be such a universally recogniced entity, I wonder if you just mouthed it (As I did for years) or have really taken it to heart...
Anyone?
