He answered
I've always been told that God answers prayer, but never have I experienced it this quickly. I came home, thinking my cousin wanted to go out to eat but she was making bacon and french fries when I came home. I also saw that she had a new hair tie. It was mine. One of my pet peeves is people going into my room without my permission. It bugs the heck out of me because my sister likes to steal things. I grew up in an environment where every time I came home something was missing or broken. I still have scars from that and having her come in here and take things just bring me right back to that time. I feel small, smaller than an atom. However, instead of getting angry, I prayed. I prayed for strength to somehow get through this. Soon after I get a call from my cousin in Niagara Falls. He tells me that he just thought about me and so he called. Made me feel so special. I was able to share what I've been up to and all the worries I have with these two 22 year olds in my house. I'll be so glad when grandma comes back. I'll be able to rest at ease about the house and no longer be responsible for it's care or the cat. Anyway, I just wanted y'all to know that God does answer prayer. I had a sweat shirt with that on it. And one teacher asked, what if someone prayed for something bad to happen to someone else. I laughed, but what I really wanted to say is that God answers prayer by saying yes, no, or not yet. Sometimes the answer is no, and we just have to realize that there is a bigger picture and that not everything is about ourselves. So as I'm going through this tough time, I know that as each day pass and I able to get through and survive, I'll be a stronger person. Maybe, someone else will want to hear my story, maybe they won't. Maybe it'll just be my own little triumph. Who knows. All I know is that I serve a wonderful God, who loves and cares for his children. That's all I'm saying.
