Psalm 37:4

I’ve noticed over the last several months my prayers have changed drastically. I used to pray for money to pay my bills, a day off of work so I wouldn’t kill my co-workers or patience at my family reunions. Not that there is anything wrong with those prayers it’s just my surroundings have changed and so have my prayers. Today I couldn’t finish my bowl of rice and beans at lunch so I prayed God would send me someone that was hungry so I could feed them. When I walked outside the teacher’s office where I had been eating there was an old blind man standing right in front of the door. Had it not been for the look of his eyes and the cane he held I would have thought he was staring right at me. I walked up to him and placed his hands around my bowl of rice and then handed him my spoon. He whispered, “Merci, Cheri.” (Thank you, Honey).
I suppose God will give us anything we want as long as what we want is in his will.

“Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.”
Psalm 37:4
