Prayer is a conversation with God conveying our concerns, hopes and requests. And as we communicate with each other exchanging concerns and thoughts the challenge in praying to God is our ability in listening to hear what God is saying to us. Many times our anticipation for God's response is heightened by our expectation and immediacy for quick answers as we expect things to be.. But God answers prayers in His appointed time. We must learn to be patient and wait on God's answer and direction.
