I have a friend who sorely needed a working dryer for her household. As usual, in a case of a friend in need, I offered to pray about it. It was answered in amazing fashion. She feels it was because of my prayers. But who’s to say whose prayers resulted in that answer?
Some of her friends may have prayed silently, without telling her. Loved ones may have prayed about it. It would be arrogant of me to assume that my prayer(s) alone accomplished that.
Even so, I am heartened by knowing her prayers and mine were answered.
Another prayer was answered this past week, a long-standing one. This one I can’t take credit for. I know some of my dear friends have been praying on this for me. But this one requires some work on my part, to bring it to a happy result. God set the solution in motion, showed it to me, and now I must keep up my part in his plans. I am worried that I will not do well by him.
Still, I know that so many are hoping and praying it will work out for me. I can’t let them down. Knowing that will help me to focus when I am too frightened to move forward. And knowing that God has trusted me to finish this project will give me the strength.
Thank you, Lord God, for your trust and faith in me, and for blessing me with faith in you.
