Hello God, I called tonight
To talk a little while...
I need a friend who'll listen
To my anxiety and trial...
........................................
You see, I can't quite make it
Through a day just on my own...
I need your love to guide me,
So I'll never feel alone.
........................................
I want to ask you please to keep,
My family safe and sound.
Come and fill their lives with confidence
For whatever fate they're bound.
........................................
Give me faith, dear God, to face
Each hour throughout the day,
And not to worry over things
I can't change in any way.
........................................
I thank you God, for being home.
And listening to my call,
For giving me such good advice
When I stumble and fall.
........................................
Your number, God, is the only one
That answers every time.
I never get a busy signal,
Never had to pay a dime.
........................................
So thank you, God, for listening
To my troubles and my sorrow.
Good night, God, I love You, too.
And I'll call again tomorrow
Love Ya, ~Barbara

that the answer to our prayer is "No"
He may not answer so that we could be more motivated to deal with our own shortcomings
When we think that God is not answering our prayers, then He may be getting us
to have greater faith in Him
We must remember that when it seems that God is not listening, He may be at the very time
doing a great work in our behalf
We must remember that the very purpose that He is now working in our lives is to conform us
into the image of His Son, Jesus Christ
He will not give up on this
We must always remember that even when we think that God is not listening, He is still there
He is always watching over us, waiting for the moment to lift our load, to take away
the burden, and to give us that much needed assurance
Praise our Savior for always being there for us
