Subject: Is James 4:3 completely true? |
Bible Note: Ariel, Its a good 2 cents to add my friend. It's so easy for people to put God in a box and then when God doesn't answer the way they think he should they will get upset. The truth be told God hears and answers prayer every time. We should be grateful to God that he doesn't always answer the way we expect. What we should consider is how Gods supplies our need. Phil 4:19. In Him, lionheart |
