All about Prayer - B for Belief (Part 25)

"What is the use of praying if at the very moment of prayer we have so little confidence in God that we are busy planning our own kind of answer to our prayer?"
By Thomas Merton

Are you guilty of doing that? I do admit that at times or most of the time, i will start planning my kind of answer that will suit me best at the situation that warrants one. When can we ever let our God be the all mighty giver?

All about Prayer - A for Answers (Part 6)

"I have lived to thank God that all my prayers have not been answered".
by Jean Ingelow

Its kind of funny when i saw this prayer comment from this lady. For me, i might not be so thankful to GOD when he doesn't answer my prayers. Like a kid, i will yell and scream or maybe pull my hair that GOD is not answering my prayers or that he has forgotten about me. Until...........when i read in the bible that we need to be thankful in all things, be it good or bad, be it whether he answers my prayers or not. Now i truly understands her meaning and am starting to feel thankful already...
