"if someone prays for patience, do you think god gives them patience? or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? if someone prays for courage does god give them courage? or does he give them the opportunity to be courageous? if someone prays for their family to be close, do you think god zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings or does he give them the opportunity to love each other?" -evan almighty

what do u guys think about this quote?

edit: FIXED my bad i suck at spelling.

If Darth Vader asked Obi Wan to join him so that together they could convert Gandalf to the darkside, all while secretly kidnapping Snow White and brainwashing her so that shed lead an army of Ewoks into Mordor so that they could activite Halo and free Master Chief from carbonite so that he could fight the Easter Bunny for rights to the Toothfairy's teeth treasure.... Would that make any more sense than any kinda religious babble?

No, except for the fact that I would pay to see that in movie format.

Good, I start filming this summer.   The Lucas/Speilberg/Disney/Jones/etc alliance will be very pleased.

It's one of the best quotes I've heard yet.  Think about it, how often have you prayed and what you want just came out of the blue?  It happens, Lord knows it hapens to me sometimes, but not often.  I think that quote is a great way to look at the relationship between God and his children.

I just laugh whenever I see someone like a basketball star or a pro golfer say a little prayer before making a critical shot

..like God's got nothing better to do than go help the overpaid sports star make a shot

I see what you are saying in a way but how can you assume you know they are praying about what they are about to do?
Perhaps they are simply thanking God for the opportunities or the gifts God has given them?
Im sure there are plenty of people that do like you said just for the shot or whatever.
Personally I do have my doubts about that myself (the person giving thanks etc.), but now that I really think about it you don't know what they are praying about.
Just a thought... I guess what I am saying is we can't read what everyone is saying to God.

i really dont know to the OP. That would sounds like something God would do. I'd have to ask my youth pastor about it.

Basically, it is saying don't just sit around and expect god to do everything for you.


If you want to make your life better, to improve it, you need to do it yourself.

My God carries a hammer.
Your God died nailed to a tree.

Any questions?

Well sure OK I guess you've got a point,, I don't really know what the sports star is saying when he's mumbling something to himself & looking UP just before taking a shot..

Maybe it's more like "hey God I just wanna THANK you for blessing my life with this wonderous golfing/basketball/whatever ability that allows me to live in splendor & get paid doing it.  Never mind if I make this shot, I just wanted to take this moment to thank you NOW for the opportunity" 

Yup plausible

To the OP.....the opportunity will be there if you ask for it.....then it's up to you to take advantage.  Ummmmm......just my opinion......who really knows what HE is up to?  It's always worked for me that way though.

"I'd like to thank god for liking me more than the guys on the other team"

I always loved when evander holyfield's dumbass would thank god for allowing him to beat someone else to a pulp.
