Unanswered Prayers

"I have lived to thank God that all my prayers have not been answered." Jean Ingelow

 We all pray and ask God for things and hope that in turn, he will give them to us. But sometimes that doesn't always happen. Sometimes God doesn't give us what we want. This isn't because we don't deserve it, it is simply because he knows that we were not supposed to have it. For example, you ask God to help you get your car to start, you keep trying and trying but it just won't. When it finally does start, you are too late to have gotten to where you needed to be but you find out that there was a really bad accident up the road that you would of been involved in.  God knows what he is doing and, instead of getting frustrated when your prayer is not answered, know that God is holding you back from it for a reason, because he loves you and want to take care of you.
