Good morning.

I purposely avoid threads regarding theology, eschatology, doctrine, etc. There is usually vitriol, ad hominem attacks, etc., and I don't like to see FReepers act like that. Remember, if the shtf, you would probably want a FReeper in your foxhole.

I want everyone to pray for me. Whether it is the apostle Peter, or mere humans, I need all the prayers I can get.

Remember the Lord said to pray incessantly. Why did he say that? Because he could be busy with things more important than me.

Who said, "the squeaky wheel gets the oil?"

That is incorrect.

We should pray unceasingly because the more we pray, the closer to God we get--in terms of emotion, thoughts, attitude, outlook, and discernment.

If you actually believe that God--the Creator of the entire universe, billions of individual free wills, omnipresent, and omnipotent--could possibly be "too busy" then you have a very small god.
