One time a father was asked by his son:
"Why is Dad always always praying when our economic circumstances are just ordinary? What do you get with your father to pray regularly to God?".
The father replied:
"There's nothing Dad can do, but I've lost a lot, but ...... I'll tell you lad, whatever's missing ...".
It turns out that missing is:
Worry.
Anger.
Depression.
Disappointment.
Heartache.
Gluttony.
Greed.
Hate.
Pride.
"Every time after praying Father always returns to calm.".
Sometimes, the answers to our prayers are not always about "what we get" but rather "what's missing" from our lives.
Do not always measure God's goodness from "what we get" because sometimes God works through "what's missing" from our lives ...
