Like when I really really need something badly and pray and pray for things to happen, they dont. But when things are relativly okay, good things happen. Why? Theres more to this question. Like, somebody just did a wonderful thing for me and I am happy and surprised, but I know I would be even more extemly happy if I was in need of it desperetly and I could be more grateful. I am grateful , but I feel that I would be even more grateful if things happened in my time of need. God works in mysterious ways... what is he trying to tell me.

I was always told, expect the unexpected.

From what I've heard and believe. If people were living right then God would bless you ith want you need and want. God just wants us to know he works in mysterious ways so have more faith in me. This is a good question and it is all apart of life. Life was not meant to be perfect. And it's not going to be.

Well, when I practice magic, one of the keys is to let it go after you put the energy out. Perhaps God is letting you know that this is what you are supposed to do. Like a walkie talkie, you can't receive anything when you are constantly transmitting because you don't take your finger off the button long enough. This concept spans many practices...Ever hear the phrase, "Let go and Let God?"

God speaks to you when you're in chaos. Just when you feel like giving up and no hope, it is when the answer gets revealed. Do not lean to your own understanding, God is in control. Expect amazing things.

Sister, I understand! We think we know when we should have what we need.
God's timing has never been our human timing. He does not have the same goals as us.
Also, we probably do get something we need more than we think. We just don't acknowledge it enough.

I think it has a lot to do with the principle, "What you confess with your mouth, that is what comes to pass."
If you're in woes, and keep thinking about your woes, and always talking about you woes, and confessing you have woes...guess what, that's exactly what you'll keep getting more of.
However, when we learn to get in line with God's word and start talking about our blessings, and thinking about our blessings, and confessing we are blessed, then we will see more and more blessings.
It's funny how it works, but God's way is almost opposite to how we think it should work.

He is telling you plainly, good things happen in HIS time, not in YOUR time. Humility is what HE is trying to teach you.

Life's a *****, and then you die.
