Answered Prayer?

[easter88]

For a long time I have been having doubts about the faith, and feeling indifferent to it. Then on Monday I was in a very bad situation so I got on my knees and said a desperate prayer to God, Jesus, my Guardian Angel, and Mary. I got just what I asked for, almost immediately! It was huge relief to me.

It’s hard to think of it as coincidence, so was it really God?

I think that in all the years I spent in different churches, and then the Catholic Church, I never really cared about God, I only cared about myself. I can’t say that I KNOW God, and I have heard that you can have an idea of God that is not how He really is, so you see Him as YOU are, and then I guess it’s impossible, or very difficult, to trust Him, love Him, worship Him, etc. as it is in my case.

Am I making any sense? I would love to hear what others think about this, and I would appreciate any suggestions.

coincidence? I think not. I’d say PAY ATTENTION.

Hi Easter, I think it’s great that God answered your prayer and resolved your bad situation. Also want to thankyou for posting as it gave me some hope and I’m sure it will for other members on here. God hears all our prayers to Him and He always answers, sometimes not how we want, but always with what is best for us.
