When is there a time for being overwhelmed? I have always believed when the
going gets tough the tough get going. I even had a child die in my arms and I did
not panic or become overwhelmed. So many people believe in God as the higher
power. I do not, yes I believe there is something that some call God. However as
is termed God has given us a share of the higher power and if you keep your
composure you can handle anything life throws your way. The time many spend
praying they could solve the problem. People pray cause they feel hopeless, and
one should never allow themselves to feel that all is hopeless. Even in disaster
something good, beneficial or better comes out of adversity
One might have a conversation with God but pray, personally not me.

It changes nothing in the end.
We can't alter time nor can change any events to our desire.
And if we could who is to say you are the one to know what is best for the world or even yourself.

Hi, I usually pray and attend my Sunday mass to thank God for all those blessings He has given me. I also pray for myself, my immediate family and friends for safety , patience and strenght to overcome trials in life.

Pretty much, there's a limited amount one can do for himself- take an hour or so a day to look after finances, health and family matters and then live and let live. Usually when you are worrying sick about one thing another thing pops up.
