Prayer Limits

I've been having conversations lately and at some point in the conversation, the topic of prayer has come up. I have a question. When should we pray? What should we or should we not pray for? I recently cut my finger pretty bad and it really hurt for about an hour. I wanted to ask the group of guys I was with to say a quick prayer of healing or just prayer about it, but didn't because I felt like it wasn't significant enough to pray about. Is that fair? I feel like it's not. Do any of you struggle with situations like that? What's your opinion?

Core Values

Knowing your passions is perhaps one of the most important things in this life. Knowing and acting on your passions is more difficult. I think a lot of people don't take the time to take an afternoon and think about these things. I know I don't. I would like to though. I feel that life would make sense, and God's plan would make more sense in my head if I simply chased after the dreams/passions that Jesus put in my heart & my head.

Married to Jesus

I recently heard someone say (and I really do believe this now), that the relationship between a husband & wife is supposed to be an example of the relationship that God invites us to. I think that's extremely beautiful. But at the same time, hard to believe. Especially when 51% of "Christians" get divorced. Now, I'm not married, but through my parents and other couples I know, I believe God did something spectacular by allowing ordinary people to mirror His love for us. What do you think about all this?
