God knows all the prayers of our hearts before we even ask. He wants us to have them. He doesn’t grant everything, though. We sometimes fail to realize that God is not Santa Claus. He is a loving father who gives us our wishes sometimes on his timing, and sometimes we don’t get our desires at all. He is a loving God who cares for us and knows what’s best. He doesn’t fail to hear. He is a God we have access to 24 hours a day, and he has a plan for even when we fail. God is the greatest chess player. He sees all the ways something can go. The beauty is he is abundant, too, so he wants us to be joyous and full. In an infinite universe, such as the one we’re in. There are endless possibilities. That’s why we should never say never. We should always hope and not give up. God wants us to be happy.
