“God in His answers to prayer often says "Yes." Sometimes He says "Wait." Often He says "No." In any case, His will is done, and true faith is to believe that what happened has happened for the best. If one does not take that attitude, he is setting his personal desire against the wisdom of God. Oftentimes we confuse with faith merely that which we desire.” IfsBelieveDoeSometimesDoneWisdomDesireBeliefWaitingPrayerAnswersAttitudeCasesHappenedSettingSettingsAnswers To PrayerTrue FaithPersonal Desire Book:A Guide to Confident Living Source: A Guide to Confident Living
“When I was three, I fell and I got Bell's palsy in my face. My mom said the first day she called the rabbi, and he said a prayer for me but nothing happened. The second day she called the Mormons, and they said a prayer for me and my face was healed, so my whole life was going around as a Jew who was giving talks in Mormon churches about being healed by the Mormons.” GivingFirstsSaidWholeFacesThreeChurchPrayerHappenedMomJewMy MomWhole LifeBellsThey SaidHealedRabbi Author:Roseanne Barr
“The Lord has given the Holy Spirit upon the earth, and in whomsoever He dwells, that one feels paradise within himself. You might say: why hasn't this happened to me? Because you have not given yourself over to the will of God, but you live according to yourself. Look at the one who loves his own will. He never has peace in himself and is always displeased with something. But whoever has given himself over to God's will perfectly has pure prayer. His soul loves the Lord, and everything is acceptable and good to him.” InspirationalFeelsLooksSoulMightEarthChristianSpiritGivenReligiousPrayerLordHappenedHolyPureGods WillHoly SpiritParadiseOrthodoxAcceptable Author:Silouan the Athonite
