I know that God answers me when I pray. How can I be so sure? Because I seldom like the answer. One of the things I KNOW about my heavenly Father is that he will always speak the truth to me, even when I don't like the answer. In all Love he calls to reflection, faith and accountability, because he truly Loves me. Where others may say what I want to hear, sparing my feelings, God speaks the truth of a Father and calls me to understanding and sometimes change. I remember a story of Max Lucado, a wonderful Christian writer and minister, where he spoke of his daughter dropping an ice cream cone in the dirt and her crying when he wouldn't let her put it back in her mouth. God seeks only the best for us, even when we protest, because he knows what is best for us.
God grant me patience and humility as I continue on this journey.
