This means that praying for a miracle could take away from God’s plan of demonstrating his goodness to us. This is not to say God couldn’t work in another way but as CS Lewis says in the problem of pain “Pain insists upon being attended to. God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pain: it is His megaphone to rouse a deaf world”.

From Prayer to Praise
What happens when God decides to turn a season of despair into a moment of joy?
God Above All
Just hours away from death, Jesus goes off with three of his closest friends to pray. He knows the coming hours will bring immeasurable pain, agony, and loneliness. The agony of just knowing what is going to happen is enough to cause anyone else to collapse under such weight. Now more than ever He needs His companions to stay alert and vigilant, He needs to know, at least right now He is not alone. He knows that in a few hours the union between the Godhead, which had never been severed from before time, was about to be broken.
