When your prayers are answered, then what?

======================

A friend of mine was distraught. Her prayers

had been answered, yet she wasn’t really happy.

You see with her prayer being answered,

another obstacle came as a result of it--or so she

felt.

Let me provide some background information.

Awhile back she had really wanted to pursue law.

Obviously, what needed to be done was to get

into law school and start her studies of law.

Getting into law school is a challenge of itself because

you first have to get a decent score on the law aptitude

test and then you have to compete with so many other

people to get into a good school. Especially when the

economy is down, more people decide to pursue more

education so the applicant pool is much greater.

Getting into law school was obstacle that came her way

and it was as if God wasn’t answering her prayers. Perhaps .

the timing just wasn’t right when she felt it was right.

When her prayers do get answered and she is in law school,

like many other students in law school, she is

questioning why she is there and what she will do with it.

This is not anything unique. We ask God to help us with

something and we keep praying. When our prayer is answered

we get in a state where we doubt why our prayers were

answered.

Like my friend, I was in the same situation. I prayed for things

to work out and when they finally did, I realized I wasn’t really

being grateful for what was given to me. The exact thing I

wanted, when I got it, I wasn’t making full use of it or truly

being thankful for it.

Just like God can give and answer our prayers, so too

can He take things away. It is important to learn to be

grateful even when your prayers are answered and the

outcome of it is another obstacle. Realize God will help

you through it as He always has and push the worry

and doubt aside. Let the inner peace of knowing you are

being taken care of fill your mind.
