People who say "I'll pray for you." are often just being nasty, and have zero intention of praying, and think story of jesus will cover for the remark. The folks who say "I'll pray for you." and aren't being mean,.. rarely do either. It's just something to say bc it's easy, and does nothing, and the person who says it can pat themselves on the back, and act like they have lived such an exemplary life, that should jesus be real, he'd grant their whispered wish.
I rely on humanity and my hands, but, I pray too just to cover the bases, but, not like I 'should'(?) I guess.
I hope the things you outlined did happen today, and tomorrow.
