Encouragement for Today

God loves to hear the sound of your voice, especially when you’re talking to Him. He wants to answer your prayers and give you what you need. In fact, there has never been a prayer of yours that God hasn’t heard. So, if you have prayed something in the past and maybe didn’t see it work out the way you wanted it to, just know that God heard your request, you weren’t ignored. It might not have turned out the way you wanted because He has something greater in mind for you or a greater purpose for you. So, keep talking to Him. Keep calling out to Him. Keep coming to Him as your strong fortress. He will never turn you away. After all, you are a child of God and He is a good Father who wants to provide for His children!
