We Look For God's Hand Instead Of His Heart

We look for God’s hand instead of His heart.

Often times, when I am praying I am just asking. I subconsciously want to leave the thanksgiving part for after the prayer has been answered. But this is not how God wants me to pray. When I phrase my prayer in a way that is thanking God for His power and His ability to answer my request, my mind begins to think more positively about the situation and I begin to have a thankful frame of mind rather than a worried frame of mind. And then my faith grows because I am reminding myself of the power of the One I am praying to. - Holly Furtick

I am learning that in everything there is purpose and grace, hope and help; knowing that even though our questions may not be answered, our cries for help will; understanding that even though not all things are good, He is good and He works for our good in all things—those are miracles, too.
