The beauty of God answering prayer is just that; He answers us! God, in His ultimate and unfailing love desires nothing less than our absolute best. Sometimes, what we think is best is definitely not beneficial for us. Often, we aren't able to see that until time passes and we can look back and see how the situation played out. God knew what was best for us all along! <br /><br />If a father takes his daughter into a candy store and tells her she can have anything she wants, the little girl would walk wide-eyed into the store eyeing all the sweet treats. The father, knowing his daughter is allergic to chocolate, wouldn't offer her a chocolate bar even if she asked for it. Does the father not care about his daughter's desire? No, the father is bearing the responsibility of parenting and doing what is best for the child. <br /><br />In this same way, God always answers our prayers with our best interest at heart. God stands to gain nothing from us, but we stand to gain everything from Him! <br /><br />So, next time you fail to get the answer you want or the next time you feel like God is simply being quiet, set your concerns aside and trust Him. With time, you'll see His protection and divine hand in your situation"KParthasarathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02189924874350906456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871706160363829905.post-54450575043447599632010-09-24T16:54:37.949+08:002010-09-24T16:54:37.949+08:00Oh, I so agree with you.

How else can you explain, that you get home safe to your family each day, that you have a job, food, clothing and shelter, when so many don't...<br /><br />Whenever I've felt the need for something, He has provided. What else can you ask for? <br /><br />Everything in our lives happen for a purpose and we have to just learn to enjoy what we've got and thank Him for that!RGBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15279590663523317849noreply@blogger.com
