Opportunity

Prayer allows the opportunity for a child of God to open his heart to the Most High Creator who demonstrates His mighty love for His children in His answers - Yes, No, Wait.

The definite YES may be followed by a warning - "You will regret this answer, but I will support you through the time of testing that is to come."

Though the definite NO hurts at the time, the reason for the NO soon become apparent and spotlights God's merciful love and unfailing grace.

The most difficult answer to endure is WAIT. 
Wait while God prepares the answer in his perfect timing.
Wait like a flower seed buried under winter ground waiting for spring to become a beautiful plant in God's garden.
Wait during drought or flood.
Wait in the season of slow growth.

No matter the reason for the WAIT, the child of God who truly want to please his Heavenly Father continues to read the Word (God's 66 love letters to His children), to watch (listen) for signs of God's direction, and to pray as an expression of dependence on the Most High Triune God.

Those who hope (trust, depend on, believe) in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,  they will will walk and not be faint.

Give thanks to the Lord always.  

Where have you been?

 Have you asked that question of friends, family, classmates, the doctor, the minister, or maybe a complete stranger? BUT have you bothered to ask "Where have you been?" of your relationship with the Most High Triune Lord God?  The Creator of the Universe wants to have a living relationship with you in a one to one time of communication.  In the old song, we are reminded that God is waiting for us to actually speak to him as a person speaks to other humans.  June Deniece William s and Miles C. Austin write:                                     I come to the garden alone while the dew is still on the roses,                                     and the voice I hear falling on my ear,                                 ...
