I\u2019m leading a group of ladies in a Bible study on prayer. God has been drawing me closer to Him through several studies on prayer in recent years and yet again, I\u2019m amazed at what God is teaching me through His Word and this group of ladies.<\/p>\n

\"hand\"<\/a>Sometimes we face difficulties in life that don\u2019t seem to make sense or there seems to be no way out or perhaps unfair. It\u2019s in these situations that we must learn to trust God and pour out our hearts to Him. He knows what we need in each situation and whether the answer to our request is not the desired answer, we can be assured that God does answer prayer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In going through some computer files, I came across a table filled with some ways that God answers our prayers in a positive way. I don\u2019t remember where I found it, so I can\u2019t give credit to the person who took the time to put this chart together. But I believe it is worth sharing.<\/p>\n

We may not know what today will bring, but we do not have to go through it alone. God has promised that He will be with us and through His presence, we can face each situation with the confidence that He offers.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Today you may face one of these one of these issues. If so, why not plan to look to God and His Word for the encouragement you need. Know that He does care for you and wants what is best for you. You simply need to ask Him to help you through it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n
