Reply To: Are we benefited by praying?"

The Bulletin Board is for gratitude for Christian Science and the Church, as well as timely excerpts from the Bible, the works of Mrs. Eddy, and the early workers that help and encourage. We are very grateful for all posts that conform to these guidelines, but will edit or remove anything that the Practitioners feel is not in complete accord with pure Christian Science or in any way disrespectful of it.

We also ask that you keep your postings as concise as possible. If you quote the Bible, please use The King James Version, as this is what Mrs. Eddy used. Thank you!

I liked what Carol said: God does answer every prayer, but sometimes it’s not the answer we expect or we want to hear—but it will be the answer that we NEED.
I often wouldn’t get the answer to my prayer that I wanted, but it always was proved to me that God had a better plan. My desires were limited or not the right thing for me. God’s plan is always the answer we need. It always blesses us where human desire sometimes takes us away from God.

I am grateful to have learned here to say, “Not my will, but thine will be done.”
