Answers…..are GREAT!

Yesterday I received three different phones calls telling me of answers to prayer for family members…..
Two were great big, awesome MIRACLES….unheard of solutions to long ago prayers by many people….
Out of the blue, it seemed!
The third one was a simple, clear answer….a quite discernment to a ‘nagging problem’…..which put the problem into a proper perspective for easy solution….


This morning my Daily Word Devotional speaks clearly to such guidance through prayer….it says:
……”If faced with a difficult choice, I know that I can turn within to God for guidance. In prayer, I find the option that is right for me at this time. I also know that I can make this a practice for life’s smaller choices as well.
Spiritual discernment includes soul wisdom….understanding that is deeper than the appearances of the moment….and the ability to release the outcome to God. In daily prayer, I am very aware of my connection to the God of the Universe, and with clear spiritual discernment, I make wise choices….”


(THIS IS KEY) The world is full of alternatives, options, solutions, answers….MANY OF WHICH ONLY BECOME APPARENT IN PRAYER!…I thank God for every opportunity to choose and for the ability to see the abundance of possibilities available to me…”


This reminds me of a young man who was agitated with a problem he absolutely could not solve….Finally, he bowed his head and began talking to God about it…..suddenly out of the blue the answer came as clear as day….so he ended his prayer with…”You can forget it now God…I’ve got the answer!”…..

Lest we forget…..prayer releases answers that can be gained no other way…
Why worry? …. When we can pray!


Proverbs 3:13.….”Happy are those who find wisdom, and those who get understanding.”
