whose prayer is stronger?

[rebion005]

I have heard it said - God helps those who help themselves -
Is this a religious cop out???
because you have tried hard, and succeeded . shouldn't you get the credit.

as for prayer - which god or goddess....there are many. Both named and nameless. Or unspeakable.

Next time put on your lucky cap or socks, shirt or what ever it is. Sit down with your friend and enjoy the game. Many things may influence it.
According to some even a butterfly beating its wings off the sea of Japan. could cause a wind or a breeze to help or hinder

My broken record answer. "The gods give men what they want to punish them." Ancient Greek proverb. Those who get all they want here on earth, get it because there is nothing for them in heaven.
