In faith and trust, deal with it – as you pray this Lazaroo:

“To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write: These are the words of him who is holy and true, who holds the key of David. What he opens no one can shut, and what he shuts no one can open.”
(Revelation 3:7)

We don’t respond very well to that initially, Jesus.

We like to appeal decisions we don’t like.
We like to feel we have some measure of control.

But we don’t.

You do hear every prayer I pray according to Your will!

But when I ask for something not best
may I truly be grateful

that Your answer is no.
