when God doesn't answer prayer

i was just thinking about this. one of my ex-grandsheep sent me a message some days ago, asking me to help her pray for her dad as he was in deep coma. it was late at night, i dropped everything that i was doing and went for a time of prayer. i know that she loves her dad so much and boldly asked God for a miracle. around 4 am in the morning, i was awaken by her message saying that he has passed away. i know that she's still devastated now and she's wondering if God can take her in his place instead, especially that her life has been really tough lately.

God doesn't answer our prayer all the time, but i know that everything works together for our good. it may seem ridiculous, but for whatever that He has taken, He will replace it with something else. i remember few years back when my grandpa was on his death-bed, i received the news on sat morning when i had to do my duty in ss, i was really sad that i cried and cried, germs was there, i remember she gave me that hug, i remember ash and charl holding my hands and prayed for me. but the biggest comfort came during worship when we sang 'for all you've done' yeah for all that He has done, for all that He's going to do, I will still give Him praise, for I know that all things work together for my good.

we do not live in a world where everything goes our way, and i know it's terrible to lose certain things in our lives, but we still have to hang onto God, cos if we don't have Him as well, we have nothing. NOTHING.

meanwhile we have to start to appreciate the ppl around us, parents.. friends. if they die tomorrow, will you have any regrets?

Note: my grandpa did pull through, not only that he's alive and kicking now, he's received God as a part of his life as well. the prayer. guess i was the blessed one =)
