I got me through Iraq. Me, some big guns, a little luck, and some friends w/ big guns that had my back. Many of my friends prayed and didn't make it home.
When I am tested - I dig deep from within MYSELF. I self-motivate. Hell, I may even talk to people that have been through it - but I def do not pray --- being the grandson of a preacher and having prayed and being shown/taught how to speak to "God" has been wasted time/effort - time that I could have used actually THINKING about the situations life has thrown at me and doing something to get MYSELF out of them rather than taking 10 minutes idle on my knees trying to psych my own mind.
When I'm pushed - I push back - and I do it w/out needing prayer. But whatever others need to get through this life is fine with me - if that's prayer then good luck w/ that - you'll need it.Prayer is funny though - for it to be so powerful you always need to DO something afterwards to help yourself outta your mess - LOL. How about just do that something 1st next time... you save yourself some time. Good luck.
