The prayer was heard. The answer just looked different than you imagined.
Your prayer: “Please make this work”
God’s answer: “No, but I have something better”
Your prayer: “Bring them back”
God’s answer: “I removed them on purpose. Trust me.”
Because you’re not ready for what I’m preparing
– Jacqueline Whitney
Your prayer: “Give me a sign”
God’s answer: sends 5 signs
You: misses all of them
Your prayer: “Why is this taking so long?”
God’s answer: “Because you’re not ready for what I’m preparing”
Your prayer: “I can’t do this anymore”
God’s answer: “Good. Now let me do it.”
Your prayer: “When?”
God’s answer: “My timing. Not yours.”
