And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.
1 John 5:14-15 KJV
My purpose in writing is simply this: that you who believe in God’s Son will know beyond the shadow of a doubt that you have eternal life, the reality and not the illusion. And how bold and free we then become in his presence, freely asking according to his will, sure that he’s listening. And if we’re confident that he’s listening, we know that what we’ve asked for is as good as ours.

Thank you, Rev. Paul. Exactly what I needed to hear today.
You're welcome, Vicki. Too often, we let our circumstances - and our own impatience - prevent us from remembering that His response is "Yes" but delivery is in His timing, not ours.
Amen.
God protect and bless us all.
