unanswered prayers.

unanswered prayers.

I used to pray in a way that I thought accomplished something.

Until I discovered that most of the time it didn’t. At least not in this present life.

Now I know that the best prayer to pray is not my will be yours be done.

pray

For some, that is not a very bold prayer. But it’s how Jesus prayed.

I used to think to pray like that was settling.

I now know it’s trusting.

When you trust, you accept unanswered prayers.
