Experiment!

Ok, so I notice we have a fair amount of “Pray and your problems will go away” people on tonight… on nearly every post I go onto… So!

I am meant to be going away to the seaside for a week next Tuesday. However, everythings paid for apart from the fuel and with the recession etc…this new job I have only just pays the bills and nothing else…literally.

I am going to pray every night until next Tuesday for fuel/money for fuel. According to some people I have spoken to tonight “It will come, I promise” So fingers crossed for me, God may exist and he may come see me bearing fuel. WoopWoop.

I’m not sure the “prayer and your problem will go away” people as you refer to them will agree with you…lol. I think anyone who tries to offer words of comfort with any religious undertones believe that if you pray you should be praying to be given the strenght to get through your problems…. that doesn’t necessarily mean they will go away though.

Ugh. The recession does have quite the effect on all of us, doesn’t it.
Sorry, I’m not going to pray for you because I don’t do prayer. I’m sure you’ll find a way though.
Godspeed?

If Jesus or anyone else shows up with free gas let me know. So if you find money or come into some unexpectedly in the next week is it God? That’s the tough one… just how far do you go to believe there was some divine intervention?

I used to pray for a big fish whenever I was a little kid fishing. Obviously God doesn’t do big fish requests…

lawl.
this is like the 4th time this week i have been reminded of this story:
a guy is stranded on a desert island and says to himself “dont worry! God will save you!”
along comes a rubber dinghy, then a schooner, then a cruise ship, then 700 million more boats, each more luxurious than the last.
man refuses every one, saying “NO! GOOOOOD will save meeee!”
eventually-he dies.
when he gets to heaven he goes up to god and is like -”dood, wtf, i trusted you and now im dead? why didnt you save me”?
to which god replies:” well, i did send you 700 million and 3 boats you retard”.

moral of the story is: when youre at the seaside, DONT GO ON A BOAT TO A DESERT ISLAND!

its so cute how you pommies call it the seaside hehe

Asking God for stuff is like trying to move a mountain with a spoon. Better to climb to a pleasant height and enjoy the view.

I know, but *true story* on one of the recession posts a person said “Pray and I promise the money will come”. I figured… worth a shot eh?

Well I was trying to think of relevent tags but I got a bit button happy with the keyboard and just couldn’t stop myself ;p

If I get miraculous fuel by next Tuesday, I hereby declare God exists and we should all bow down and offer him our socks as a sacrifice. Who knows he may supply the car if he gets enough socks!

Yes but you see… fuel is *in theory* easier to come by than something from half way across the world.

Lol !!! Haha. Well I will look for the obvious signs hehe. I’m not an athiest but I don’t really know exactly what I believe. However, if I get this fuel I expect you to also be donating some socks lady!!

I just need a lil bit of fuel! It only costs £50 to fill up the tank. Not asking for much is it lol.
