TWO.1 – If God Hears Prayers, Why Isn’t Mine Being Answered?

Week 2: Day 1

I was kneeling by my bedside, praying with everything I had! Yet, I felt like I was talking to a brick wall. Why does God feel unreachable? Have I done something to distance myself from Him? Do I lack faith? Am I not listening in the right way? Am I afraid of getting an answer because I don’t know if I’m ready to buy a house? What is the problem?!

Yes, it’s true! My husband and I have been thinking about buying a house for a good three months. We have looked at A TON of houses! Each one leaving us with that same unsure feeling. We pray and pray to know whether or not we should take this HUGE adult step, considering it’s not a decision we would make on a whim! This is a big life choice – one that I didn’t think I would even consider until I was at least 27! Even so, is it just not important enough?

Also, does God disguise his answers sometimes, because one day I will feel good about buying and the next I don’t. Is that the definition of a stupor of thought? I just don’t know!… but I really, really, really want to.

Feel free to search your scriptures, ask your trusted friends, and pray about this with me!

Oh & Don’t Forget!
