Do you hear me?

I often think that sometimes God just does not hear my prayers. I pray and pray and yet there is still no answer. I am betting that many of you have been there at one time or another. The feeling that your prayers are just bouncing off the ceiling. This is a common thing in the life of the believer. Sometimes there is a sin in our lives that is hindering our prayer. Maybe we are asking for the wrong things, as in selfish things. I am no expert on prayer but I do know that the bible has an aweful lot to say about it. In James 5:16 we are told (fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.) We are told in Hebrews 4:16 (16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.)I think the most important thing to remember is that God hears us, we are his children and you would never ignore the child you love. Keep in mind that though you feel your prayer is not answered that maybe it is just not being answered how you would think it would be. God's power is vast and something we can not understand. Remember God is good all the time. All the time God is good.
