Month: September 2018

Personally, I am terrified of going to the dentist.  Break a foot, have a heart problem, or any number of diseases, and I do not worry.  But the dentist terrifies me, lol.  I guess everyone is afraid of something!  For me it’s the dentist.  So when I broke my tooth; I was not happy!  And like anything else I am worried about, I ran to our Lord and asked for His help.

And as always, He gave it, and then some! ?

You see, not only did I need to go to the dentist, but the next day I was planning to travel to visit with a Sister in Christ who is very dear to me.  I was worried about going to the dentist, but even more worried that they would pull my tooth and I wouldn’t be able to visit with her!

But God is good, always!  And as usual He gave me even more than I needed.  Not only did I survive the appointment, but the dentist decided it could wait until the next week to be fixed!  What a Blessing!  I could still visit with my Sister in Christ.  Did God fix my tooth, no.  But He did provide for me a wonderful, compassionate dentist and a visit with my friend!

God may not always give us exactly what we want, but He always gives us exactly what we need!  So if you are afraid of anything or worried about something, Keep Praying; Prayer Changes Things ?

“What we believe about Jesus and what we do with His teaching will keep our names written in Heaven or erase them”- Serge Tate

Sometimes we just don’t feel like praying.  Especially if we feel our prayers have not been answered “Yes”.  But the truth is, sometimes God’s answer is “Not Yet”, or even “No”.  Why is that? Why doesn’t God just give us what we want?

Sometimes because what we want, is not what we need.  And sometimes because it would not be good for us right now.

But don’t give up on praying!  As my Pastor, Pastor Richburg says, “Prayer Changes Things”.  Although God may not always give us what we want, He will always give us what we need!
