Ways to change a flat tire.
1) Curse it and walk away - which is pathetic.
2) Pray to God for help - which is stupid.
3) Ask someone else to change it - Great if you can do that.
4) Pay someone else to change it - Great if you have money.
5) Change the tire yourself - Which is Best, if you can do it.
The reason why I'm mentioning this is Jennifer was talking about praying for someone who needed help.
In all my experience, praying has never accomplished anything.
It makes the person praying feel better. Whoopee.
It's a lazy persons way out of actually offering any kind of real help.
If a person is really sincere, they'd get off their butts and do something.
Even asking someone else to help another person makes more sense than praying.
There's a little thing some people say after I've helped them, that I really hate to hear:
That they asked God for help, and he provided it.
