Thank you for your story, Im 25 years old about to get this surgery in the next few months and I’m terrifed amongst other horrible feelings, i feel alone and like no one really understands. I’m going through alot in my life aside from the upcoming surgery and i dont have many people around. i just lost my bestfriend (boyfriend broke up with me 9mos ago) and its just been a horrible journey. Me and God have been through some things, because I feel like he isn’t there for me anymore, i feel like hes punishing me for something because everything in my life is wrong. im not a “case” but reading your story gave me some hope and i thank you for that.. i hope everything is great in your life and that you continue down your path whatever they may be. only good things can come!!

I’m glad you shared your experience. I am, in many ways, in the same “spiritual but not religious” camp as yourself. I have, however, seen what I believe to be the power of (non-sectarian) prayer – first, with my mother’s massive brain hemorrhage, and just recently following my own daughter’s breast surgery. Both had “miraculous” outcomes, and yes, both were prayed for extensively.

Coincidental? I think not…

Hi Adam,

Thank you very, very, very, much for your blog on prayer. So many people are afraid of getting into this subject, as if it should be taboo. No matter what your religious affiliation, (or non-affiliation) I think, we as human beings instinctively know we have a creator, and a higher power. We are very much spiritual beings. To deny this need, I think, is a mistake. Your definitely NOT crazy Adam.

Thanks again Best regards, Kathy Mccain
