PA-PLAYA I pray whenever I feel moved to pray, just like when you feel like you need to go to the bathroom when "moved by the spirit of your innards" and gas pains hit.
Interesting analogy. I imagine bowel movements and prayers have a similar impact.
I'm not questioning your faith here, though I don't share it. You did an incredible thing as a young man getting out there to help the area in a time of need after Hugo. I believe people acting is the way forward. I suppose when I say "I hope" or "I wish" for the best for those affected, and the safety of those cleaning up the mess, it means the same thing as you or someone else offering their prayers.
I would say, I guess, that I pray/hope/wish there are enough people willing to act as you did to help the people that end up needing it.
PA-PLAYA You're showing your age here. Best to just not respond further imo.
If you don't want gentle discourse, get a diary.
