Never stop praying. Whatever happens, give thanks, because it is God’s will in Christ Jesus that you do this.
1 Thessalonians 5:17–18
There is no such thing as an unanswered prayer. It’s easy to believe that God is too busy or just not interested in what you want and need, especially when you pray and pray and never get what you ask for. But the truth is, he isn’t ignoring you. He’s heard every word and knows every need, and he has answered you—you just haven’t heard his voice.
God never lets prayer go unanswered when it comes from the mouth of his children. The only prayer he ignores is the prayer of those who ignore his law and don’t truly love him (see Prov. 28:9; John 9:31). For the God Girl that means you can be certain that all your prayers are being answered. It’s not always the answer you wanted—sometimes he says no. And he might not show you the answer immediately—sometimes he says to wait—but it will come. And when you are certain of that fact, you can rest in trust and not worry about every little thing.
God always answers in the best way—not occasionally but always. God knows what you need, and he will give you just that. And when he does, it will be the best thing at the best possible time. So don’t give up praying for everything in your life. Never stop praying (see 1 Thess. 5:17), knowing that he hears every word and he will respond in just the right way at just the right time.
