God Never Says No!
2007-07-01
Through blog hopping, one blog caught my attention.. Not because of whom the author is or what the blog skin looks like, it is all about the content of her updated blog..
She says this... Honestly, I really don't get what she exactly wanted to say. But one thing I am sure is, GOD NEVER SAYS NO to us. HE only answered us a YES and WAIT.
And the bible says from...
Luke 11:9-10
Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks, it will be opened.
Practically speaking, you will never ask some things that you don't want. Obviously, you're asking for some things because that is what you want, aiyt???
Have you tried to ask some things that you don't want? Well, I bet not, coz no reason at all for you to ask for some things if you doesn't want to.
And to be fair with her, part of her blog is true.. People used to decide without thinking and people used to do stupid things but honestly speaking, things got its own reasons...
But at the end of the line, it's still her blog, her opinion and her right to express everything under the sun the way it is.
This response of mine is just a simple view and belief, nothing personal.
Lesson: Ask and learn to wait. Follow and accept what God's will for you...

Thanks for all the replies. And don't worry, I do respect all your replies! In my point of view, God literally never says no... like as what Barnabus says, "God didnt reply / gives you what you asked as he has "something" BETTER than what you asked." But still, HE DOESNT SAY NO, its just that, its not just for you that's why you have to wait till the right gift is given to you :)

I believe that God answers our prayers but not always the way we want them. He knows what we really need, so I think that he gives what we need more that what we think we want. His answers can be pretty much a mystery sometimes, and it comes out of the blue, you might had ask for something or even done something for someone, no strings attached, and guess what something comes back to you. I believe in God incidence not coincidence.
Nothing is too small to ask God just talk to him like hes your friend,sometimes he whispers and when he really wants you to know he yells.

It weems to me that when God says No...he has something much better in mind! I've had many prayers answered, yet the answers are a lot of times so surprising, that it took me a while to recognize the answer!!! I believe all prayers are answered!!!

I'm not too sure God says no or yes to much.

If one were to subscribe to a belief in a higher being that controls our lives,God does answer all prayers, its just that the answer sometimes is NO. Furthermore, subscribing to the same belief, he gave us free will, and the knowledge to learn right from wrong. I personally choose to go with those tools, than wait around and pray for things to happen. We control our thoughts and destinies. Turing things "over to God" to let him handle is to me a quite pacifistic way to live. Just my opinion and right to express my viewpoint.
