Feelings in Prayer
The waters surrounded me, even to my soul;The deep closed around me;Weeds were wrapped around my head.6 I went down to the [a]moorings of the mountains;The earth with its bars closed behind me forever;Yet You have brought up my life from the pit,O Lord, my God. Jonah 2:5-6, NKJV
On Relations to the World
18 “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its own. Yet because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. John 15:18-19, NKJV
God Hears Our Prayers

The Choice of God
16 You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you. 17 These things I command you, that you love one another. John 15:16-17, NKJV
