Prayers are not wasted. This woman is obviously traumatised...and I'm sure God scattered the rest around to those who also really need it. Sorry...I was just posting what was current at the time.

Ping...There are no wasted prayers, but I don't know what to think now. The poor woman is obviously traumatized...so I hope our prayers helped in some way. It may be that some relative was trying to take advantage of her problem.

She was only trapped 2 days. Well that makes a difference. No big deal huh? Poor woman. I hate to think of what she has been thru. Prayers continue.

[processing please hold]

She's 40?

James 5:15-17 (King James Version)

 ¹⁵And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

 ¹⁶Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.

 ¹⁷Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.

You're right, paulat...NO prayer goes unanswered. Nor is it wasted. Ever.
