As a noncatholic I would like to ask a question.
I have seen on many threads that people say “pray” when faced with a major problem in life (medical problems, marital problems, family problems etc.).
My thinking has always been that prayer is a coping mechanism that in combination with other things (therapy etc.) can solve a problem. But I have never viewed prayer alone as a way to solve a problem. Can someone please explain this concept to me… or is it that I am reading posts incorrectly and it is prayer and therapy or whatever else is required in the situation that will help solve a problem???
