Someone told me recently that they don't believe God answers prayer requests because this life is what we have chosen. So he doesn't interfere. And we just have to live with the consequences of our choices. There is truth in that. Except for this.
God didn't just say "You've made your bed, now lie in it." He said "You've made an awful mess. I hate that you have to live in that. Here - I will pour out my own lifeblood to give you a way out. Please, please choose it."
Our longing for a life without sickness and pain and misery and death, is a valid one. He wants that for us too! And while he might not make those changes in this ruined world, he will give those gifts one day to everyone who grasps at the hope he offers.
