All Prayers Are Answered
Have you ever thought that your prayers weren't heard? You prayed really hard for that new car, promotion at work or money to take your family to Disneyworld, but your prayers fell on deaf ears.... Or so you thought.
What you forgot is that every question asked or prayer made has two possible basic answers and sometimes the answer is, "yes" and sometimes the answer is "no". The Divine won't just miracle a new car into your yard, a promotion into your lap or free tickets in your mailbox to Disneyworld. Can you imagine if we got everything we wanted by praying? We would become a lazy group of individuals indeed! And that is why sometimes the answer to our requests is simply "no".
If you truly want something, you must work for it. No one thing that is truly valuable is attained easily. If you want a new car, budget for it. You have the power to give it to yourself. If you want a promotion, be a shining star at work. Show upper management that you are truly worthy of a better position at your work. The Divine already knows you are worthy.
If you promised your family a summer vacation to Disneyworld but don't know how you're going to financially pull it off; budget tightly and get a second job if you need to. Ask the whole family to work as a team. If you want something, work for it. The Divine will lay the path to show you the way and all you have to do is simply walk it. Don't expect immediate results but results you will get in time. Patience is the key.
Next time you want something so badly you're willing to pray for it, don't simply ask for a car or a job or a vacation, instead ask for a way to attain them through honest means be shown to you and those doors will open.
