“The difference between the almost right word and the right word is really a large matter. ’tis the difference between the lightning bug and the lightning.” Mark Twain

Thanks for the No

God doesn't always answer our prayers - at least not the way we want Him to.

Who like it when God says "no" to their heartfelt prayers? It can be frustrating, depressing - and a blessing.

A blessing?

I'm over at Jewels of Encouragement today talking about our need to thank God when he denies our prayers. Hope you'll stop by and learn to say "Thanks for the No."

My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses for the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer. Psalm 45:1
