These pictures with the captions cracked me up.  Seven Prayers God Always Says No To...
I recently heard of a book written by Anthony DeStefano called Ten Prayers God Always Says Yes To. Now, I've never read the book, and this post isn't a book review - the title ought to be a dead giveaway.
But it got me thinking - are there prayers God always says no to?
Well, this is AoftheA - of course there are! There are at least seven.       
I'm sure there are more...

There is a difference in treating God's creation with kindness & worshipping it to the point of blindness & common sense.
That is how I took it.

Does a tree know?
It's God's creation. We than Him for it & it's protection. We don't ask Him to relay a message to a tree.
Now if we're talking cats & other animals....

Michie, do you have experience with chickens? I have a cat-related question.

I've been around them but my experience is mostly with wild injured birds.

My new neighbour has chickens and I'm afraid that my cats will like them a bit too much. I don't want them to harm the chickens - not only for the chickens sake, but also because I value a good relationship with my neighbour (after all, I'm to love her like myself ). My cats are allowed outdoors and the chickens are, too (loose in the neighbour's garden). My cats know how to climb over the fence, and they don't speak much humanese. Today I saw them checking out the chickens.
