Why does god need to be petitioned by people saying prayers to heal people?
​
It seems odd to me that a god would only heal people when they are prayed for.
​
Does this mean that god only heals those who have enough people who like and pray for them?
​
Can't god tell when a person deserves healing?
​
It seems to me that there are millions of people around the world who could be healed and yet this does not happen.
​
Why does god need to be asked to heal people?
​
Faith and Belief, please.

I once freed Terry Waite from his captivity in Lebanon by the power of my daily prayers.

I vote that for POTM if I thought it would fly.
