Just me trying to be honest with God.

"Prayer is not overcoming God's reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness." Martin Luther.

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will...we know that we have what we asked of him.” 1Jo.5

I have often thought that God is more willing to answer our prayers than we are sometimes willing to pray. Of course I do not think He gives us everything we ask for. What good parent would do that? Father wants to give us what is best, so He may wait for our perspective to mature and catch up to His. A more mature perspective will produce a more mature prayer.  Conversations Within” ts 1/7/2014 (Jax, FL)
