| Re: prayer -will God fail | | Hi Welcome to Sermon Index. In answer to your question all I can say is that I know that God is faithful to hear our prayers but its His good and perfect will to answer how He sees best. I understand how hard it is to see those around us that we care about reject the Lord. My dad who is very ill and has very little time left still will not listen and holds on to the trust he has placed in the Catholic church instead of in Jesus. It so hard but I know that in the end no matter what happens Father has given my dad every opportunity to come to Him, its my dad who has rejected the Lord. I will be praying for you, just keep your eyes on Jesus for strength.
God Bless MJ |
