Prayer, Answering, & Miracles


Throughout my entire life so far (and I am 73 years old) I have believed that prayer was being used to communicate with God, Allah, or some kind of Superior Entity that had God-like qualities.  I have also believed that MIRACLES have and will continue to take place on earth, but I am not sure that it is the result of prayer or because of some other reason(s).

WHY...  do I think like this?

Well...  
  1. how come some prayers are answered while other prayers are not answered?
  2. how come some miracles are performed while other miracles do not happen at all?
  3. how come miracles happen to those who believe as well as to those who do not believe?
There are literally millions of people praying everyday for:
  • their own good health
  • the good health of others
  • the end to conflict and wars
  • the cure for disease
  • children with terminal illnesses
  • a long awaited promotion
  • to pass a difficult test
  • that their children grow up unharmed
  • the recovery from cancer
HOWEVER...
We have been told that when we pray to use THE LORD'S PRAYER and for God's Will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven...

AND YET...
Do we always believe that God's Will is, in fact, being done on earth as it is in Heaven when so many of our prayers are unanswered?
