You have no idea when or how God will answer your prayers, but don't stop praying.

What you and I might rate as an absolute disaster, God may rate as a pimple-level problem that will pass. He views your life the way you view a movie after you've read the book. When something bad happens, you feel the air sucked out of the theater. Everyone else gasps at the crisis on the screen. Not you. Why? You've read the book. You know how the good guy gets out of the tight spot. God views your life with the same confidence. He's not only read your story...he wrote it.

I don't believe God allows surrendered hearts to continue to long for things He will not ultimately grant in one way or another. Our disappointment with God is often the result of our small thinking.

We shall not grow weary of waiting upon God if we remember how long and how graciously He once waited for us.

Its not over, until the Lord says its over.

Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but desire fulfilled is a tree of life.

And Abraham and Sarah were already old and well along in years; Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.

The God who allows sorrows is the God of sweet new seasons too.

As long as a man is alive and out of hell, he cannot have any cause to complain.

Faith has to do with things that are not seen, and hope with things that are not in hand.

We can never really know, except in hindsight, how prayers will be answered.

I just need to be myself and allow things to happen. If it's God's will, good things will happen.
