How it works

My older brother is one of those people that just has to know how things work. I remember getting a toy for my birthday and soon after getting it out of the box my brother was trying to take it apart to see how things worked and how it did what it did.

Now I don't care how it works, as long as when I press the correct button it does what I want, that's all i need to know. Simple but effective. Why try and make it complicated and get it to bits not really knowing if you'll get it back together again?

With Prayer I often find myself wondering how it works, if god has a plan then surly that's what is going to happen and all the praying in the world will not change it.

Praying is talking to God and making him part of your life. And communication with God is key if your to have him in your life.

I guess as a parent we know what we want for our children but sometimes the child may ask for something different and we have to weigh up whats best for the child.

The child may not always get what it wants. As a parent we will sometimes decide to give the child something better as we try to teach our children the best ways in life.

God is like our parent and will always listen to our prayers, he will always answer them even if its sometimes not the answer we where expecting. He will always help us when we ask for help and lead us in the right direction.

This is all part of having faith in Him and trusting him to know what is best for us and others. Just as a child trusts a parent and seeks help, we should trust and seek help from God .

I don't know how it works but I guess I'm happy just knowing it does work and trust God will always listen and answer.
