Part 3 Dependence On God Series: Did You Hear Me God?

Don't we think like that sometimes? I mean I know I do. The last thing I want to have in my life after I continue this writing is a pity party for myself ok? So, only happy thoughts from both you guys and me! Seriously though, sometimes when it comes to God " deaf" comes to mind. No, I know God isn't deaf or anything like that. It's just why does he allow the worst of things to happen to me when I do ask for protection sometimes. For example, did I really need to fall and get stitches on my chin last year? Or, did I really have to hit my head on a filing cabinet and get my head stapled a couple years ago God? That killed by the way! ( if you have a choice I say stitches instead of staples!) Of course, hope you guys will never come across that. :)

I took a day pause from my writing, because I was pretty sad about my Apo (grandma) passing away. I wondered to myself maybe if I just kept her in daily prayers maybe she would still be alive? Then the knock to my head (Holy Spirit) told me, no amount of prayers for her could have prevented what God willed. Yeah, I am sad I won't have my Apo anymore but I am very happy that she accepted and trusted Jesus Christ as her Lord and Savior. So, that means we will meet again! She will be jumping up and down with joy not using her wheel chair and I will be dancing too with joy not ever needing a wheelchair! See, Apo believed that when she died she would spend eternity with Jesus in Heaven! By accepting Jesus as her Lord, she became assured of what would happen after she died. Don't we all want that?  I want to see all my loved ones after I die! Don't you wanna see me too?

God does hear me. That's the awesomeness! I just have no idea why the results fall the way they do. But, I am pretty sure that God does hear me. He hears when I complain, swear at him, say His name in vain. And, he probably gets super sad. But, that's why I need to work on only saying things to Him that are like nice music to His ears. Maybe if I say stuff like, " To God be the glory!"

Unfortunately for me, the answer to the above is yes. The question is do I understand why? No. Do I need to? I will probably say not yet. Will I someday? Yes! God is going to have a lot of explaining to do when we see each other. But, of course I'm not going to ask if he ever heard me.

This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. (‭1 John‬ ‭5‬:‭14‬ NIV)

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life. ( Romans 6:23)

And this is the testimony. God has given us eternal life and This life is in His Son.  He who has the son has life he who does not have the son of God does not have life. ( 1 John 5:11-12)
