Answered Prayer

God never ceases to amaze me!
In an earlier post entitled "The Necessities Of Life", I was (reluctantly, sad to say,) praying for the granddaughter of the lady who hands out samples at the grocery store - some of you will remember! Well yesterday I saw her again for the first time after that, and I went up to her to say "Hi" and ask how her granddaughter was doing.
I was amazed! Her face lit up and in front of a lot of people, she blurted out that she is not the same girl. She said she has "totally changed", is back at school and is doing "GREAT". She went into quite a lot of detail, telling me that she even told her that she had somebody praying for her. I walked away praising God for even listening, let alone answering my prayers.
When we don't feel like praying, or our hearts are not right, this shows me to be obedient anyway and God will bring about the results He desires. It's not about how good we are, (thank God), but about how good He is!
