Do we expect God to answer prayer?
I recently heard a preacher advocate keeping a list of things we pray about. His suggestion was to list the prayer need and beside it put the date it was added to the list. Then when a prayer is answered, mark a line through the listing and put the date the prayer was answered.
Maybe doing this would help us realize how often God answers our prayers.
We all have needs of our own, plus needs of friends and relatives. Sometimes we think God is too big or too busy to be concerned with our needs. But the opposite is true: God wants us to come to him with our problems, our concerns.
And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: 1 John 5:14 (KJV)
