    Because like everyone you have been praying to Jesus. That was one body of the many times' God has been born on earth.Say you loved both parents', one died, one was alive. People sympathised with you over your loss, not just once but every day, never stopping. How long before you say, what about my living parent. God has had 2,000 years' of listening to an old body being prayed to. Breaking the first commandment. Reword your prayers' leaving out Jesus and you will soon get an answer. Try it if you do not believe.

    You should seek the help of people if you are lost. If you are spiritually lost, then talk to a pastor or priest. If you feel depressed then seek the help of a psychologist or mental health professional. God is not magic, but God is in the hearts of many good people who are going through life at the same time as you. Reach out beyond your prayers to find guidance. God helps those who help themselves...

    Did you pray to Jesus?

    Well maybe that because he was not a God.

    He never die for the sins of mankind.

    I'm sure God is not so stupid for sacrificed Himself for the sins of mankind.

    He could just forgive them, right?

    Plus, Christians are praying to the statue. Jesus's statue. Man made God.

    I prayed to Allah, the ONLY God that existed.

    He is the first and the last.

    He created us.

    He can saved us from hellfire, not Jesus.

    In Islam, if our prayer is not answered, there must be the reason. We're not always get what we want.

    Allah the merciful, Allah doesn't give us what we want, but Allah gives us what we need.

    Continue to pray, and know that God will indeed answer your prayer. Sometimes we have a preconceived idea of what the 'answer' would be, but we have to let go of that, surrender, and allow for the answer to come. Just realize that it may not come in the form you're expecting, so you may not recognize it at first. Deeply felt prayer IS answered. Truely. Trust in God.

    First and foremost Jesus is not God.....The bible tells us his name....Jehovah.....you must only pray to him. And when you do Say...Our Father who is in heaven, hallowed be thy name.....( Jehovah ) Use his name....he wants you to.....say what you need to say...thank him for all he has given you and ask him to keep you safe from the devil...and go through Jesus amen........This is how to be heard by Jehovah God, the sovereign of the Universe.

    No God, hence no answer.

    What kind of response are you expecting?

    He isn't going to 'talk' to you

    had had the bible written so that we could read it ourselves
