Maybe that’s why people think God is saying no, whining and tantrums. or just giving up. We need to rethink His good gifts, how He will not give us stone if we ask for bread. I’m sure He would be saying no just like a mother, if we were laying in the floor crying for another Oreo, And I like that friend who can say by this time, WoW! And God doesn’t have to yell at us either, firm but loving, Thanks, Patricia.

I love to see God answer our bold prayers. However, I think we all can fall into that place where we think: God are you there? God will you answer prayer? I loved the example you used with your daughter. We are Gods’ daughters and it really put things into perspective for me.

What a beautiful lesson in prayer! I, too, suffer from prayer timidity. Thank you for the encouragement to pray boldly!

In reply to Jennifer.

You are right, Jennifer! He ALWAYS answers! And His answer is always the best. Does not always feel that way, but “in due time” He reveals that His “No’s” are protection, and His “not yet’s” are preparations for the right time.

So grateful for your participation! Blessings,

In reply to Michele Morin.

I am with you, Michele!! Worst is when we pray, secretly doubting God will answer 🙁
We are leaving at a time of instant gratification, so being patient to wait on God is becoming less and less “normal” and harder to do.

Thank you so much for being a faithful participant of our Linkup!

Blessings to you,

Great reminder Patricia,
I have learnt that there are answers to each & every prayer we take to the throne of grace; they are…yes….no that isn’t my will or it’s on its way but there is patience needed for the timing!

His wisdom in the answers to our prayer requests are what we seek… Isn’t it… “Lord your will be done in the situation!”
Thank you for hosting,
Jennifer

This is great encouragement for my prayer life. I have a tendency to give up, to lose steam, and run out of gas when an answer does not come right away.
