How God Answers Prayer

By T. Edwards

SOMETIMES God answers prayers at once, giving us what we seek. Sometimes he gives some better thing than we ask. Sometimes he answers by giving the very contrary of what we wished, and out of that springs the particular end for which we prayed. “I have prayed for thee,” said Christ to Peter, “that thy faith fail not;” and yet Peter fell. But through his fall, in which his faith seemed to fail, he was brought nearer to Christ, and made faithful to the end.—T. Edwards.
