HE ANSWERS US!
Our God=always answers
OUR PRAYERS=but NOT always
The way=
WE would like to hear
HE ANSWERS US!
For example=the Lord
Gave me life=but he
Didn't give me the LIFE-
I had envisioned for myself=
A FAMILY and a career
But he gave me
SOMETHING BETTER=a life
DEVOTED to God=a life
FULL of God's love
HE ANSWERS US!=
The Holy Father and Jesus
Answer our prayers
“Behold=thus is
The man BLESSED-
Who fears the Lord” Psalm 128:4
We may not
Always RECEIVE=
A physical healing
We may not all
Have UNLIMITED finances=
And we may not all
Receive the family=and relationship
We may so DESIRE
But God DOES answer PRAYERS=
He gives us=WHAT WE NEED
He answers us!
“Do not-
Be like them=
For your Father knows
WHATYOU NEED
Before you ask him” Matthew 6:8
“Share with=the Lord's people
Who ARE IN NEED=
Practice hospitality” Romans 12:13
Sometimes we don't receive
EXACTLY what we want=
But sometimes we get-
What we NEED
But sometimes=we receive
A special GRACE
From God-
Special graces from Jesus
But I cannot EMPHASIZE ENOUGH
That God does answer us=
That God gives us
What we need=I know
He has done that
FOR ME
“The Lord will
Guide you always
He will satisfy YOUR NEEDS
In a sun-scorched land
And will strengthen-
Your frame” Isaiah 58:11
“And my God
Will meet=ALL YOUR NEEDS
According to the riches
Of his glory
In Christ Jesus” Philippians 4:19
I NEVER received
What I wanted
But I received
What I NEEDED
From my parents=my sisters=
My EXTENDED FAMILY and friends=
Our God is a GRACIOUS GOD
I have LIVED in gratitude
And in HOPE=
God answered my prayers
HE ANSWERS US!
He will answer your prayers too=
So be grateful=and live in hope
GOD ANSWERS PRAYERS!
In Jesus' name=and in the name=of our always LISTENING HOLY FATHER!
