Why do we remember God only in times of crisis? At least I do.I don't get time to pray regularly or on a dialy basis.But when Igo through someproblem or crisis,I do remember to say a prayer.And defend myself saying that if God is really omnipotent, then he will understand.

Anita, you say 'we' but not everyone is like that, lot's of us yes, but not everyone. Some people maintain a good relationship with God through all of lifes circumstances.

Those of us that are like that, what is our relationship with other people like? Do we only take the time to ring family or friends when we have a reason. Do we ring them just to chat? Perhaps it is just a reflection of who we are, how busy we are, what our prioritys are?

We can easily get too busy for the important things.

Words don't have meanings, meanings have words.

The thing is in times of crisis people need to refer to someone above us. It is not only to pray but also to ask the reason of the problems and why God is doing that to them. We need to ask help for someone but also to blame someome for problems. Yes we don't take times to call our families who certainly can advise us about the problembut I think we are unable to blame them for a problem and say that it is his or her fault, which is sometimes easier to say to God.

Nevertheless, I do agree to see people who believe in God and pray regurlarly and go the Curch or whatever the name of the place they pray. They ask favors or just great Him for His present He has given to the Earth and Man.

WE remember God daily because we choose to and because we respect and love God..

The main reason why we pray God when we are in crisis is we need a superior to guide us and show us a right path to lead and make our life better. A simple example is when ever there is thunder during rainy times our ansisters and our parents tell us to just say a God name loudly so that we may not feel the thunder's fear.
