You know what? The things that I pray for come into my life, in one way or another. It may not seem like it at first and sometimes the answer seems more like a punch to the gut. But when it’s all said and done, my prayers are answered. Some people expect that when they pray for something, it will happen – just like that and just in the way that they want it to. But it doesn’t work that way.. remember, “Thy will be done, on Earth as it is in Heaven”. Not my will or your will.. HIS will. I feel pity for those who think that people who believe in Jesus and have faith, will live these perfect lives that are free from sin and pain. This is not the case. The Devil targets those with faith moreso than those without.. why? Why shoot an animal that is already dead? Why does the Devil need to win those that are already disbelievers? Living for God, living a life pleasing to God is not easy. It’s much easier living in sin and on the surface may seem more fun. But what about the eternal rewards? Does the temporary satisfaction of this world seem worth losing a place in with Jesus in eternity? Isn’t there ever some small part of you that thinks that there is something missing in your life and you are trying to fill it with momentary or monetary things?
