“I'd Like To Ask Sister White ...”

155/182

Does God Always Answer Our Prayers, And Give Us What We Ask For?

When you rise in the morning, do you humbly, and heartily make known your wants to your heavenly Father? If so, angels mark your prayers, and when you are in danger of unconsciously doing wrong, your guardian angel will be by your side, prompting you to a better course, choosing your words for you, and influencing your actions. 19 LASW 144.5

We are to rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him. The answer to our prayers may not come as quickly as we desire, and it may not be just what we have asked; but He who knows what is for the highest good of His children will bestow a much greater good than we have asked, if we do not become faithless and discouraged. 20 LASW 144.6
