Thanks, excellent morning read. Up for discussion...lol...leave it to me to stir the pot a little. I get really amazed at my prayers being answered. Many, many, many times while doing things and sort of hit the end of the road moment, I speak with God and sure enough my little issues disappear, this can be when I am building something, working on a project in my shop, or sometimes even personal issues...BIBGO....my problem is solved. The other day I was doing something outside and no way was it gonna get done, later my wife ask if I ever got things working, I said yep, I finally gave up on me and talked with God and He got me straightened out...NOW!!! For the discussion part, I fail greatly when it comes to my "BIG" prayers. Over the yrs I have had major issues on this very subject, God and I have had long discussions about this and sometimes to the point of confrontation. I am thick and I understand that. Now let's be clear here, I am not talking about hitting the lottery. Why do my little prayers get answered yet those big things do not....I know the key statement, well it is not in God's will...I have surrendered to this, although not sure this is correct answer, maybe just an easy way out.....Example: I have encountered more than once a child sick with a terminal disease and have talked and talked with God, begged, pleaded etc, yet nothing & child dies. Of course the child is in heaven with God, that is not my point. I have prayed in public and all alone in the silence of my room. The disturbing thing to me is not the prayer for an adult, an addict, the gov't, etc that goes unanswered as I can understand this, "sort of," but an innocent child, a big prayer, but does not fit into God's plan & I know He has a plan for everything, yet it does get confusing at times... I have searched the Scriptures and spent much time talking with God on this very matter. I do not have the answer, yet it is a subject that does not bugg me as before. SEE! I can open a can of worms from time to time....Steve's fault today

God Bless
