God heard everything I ever said to Him.
He heard every single word.
All the prayers I had ever prayed.
In fact, even those prayers that were no more than a groaning within my spirit born deep from my heart.
HE heard them ALL.
Staring out my car window. Surrounded by a host of rush hour traveler's speeding past. Everyone in a hurry. Everyone going somewhere important to them - and today? Me, on my way to nowhere important really. It just HITS ME *wham* Like someone is playing a movie in my car and the screen is my windshield.
Strangest darn thing.
I mean seriously - like yesterday in Target, only different. THIS time I start to see (remember) times and circumstances in my life that have been or are difficult or hurtful.
THEN I SEE (This is SOOOO cool) prayers I prayed!
I actually saw prayers that I had prayed, like written down.
The words flash across the screen (windshield).
I also saw (was reminded of) dreams the Lord had given me about such times - and - the VICTORIOUS outcome!
That's when I realized.
Everything I have been going through.
Every trial - every hardship and tribulation, they were more than "just allowed" by God to build character - they were, ARE in fact, ANSWERS TO PRAYER - I was being given (strange as it was) a very unusual vision experience in my car - and -because of it;
TODAY I REALIZED - God hears my every prayer.
I will not pretend to understand how He works.
I am just thankful He does and always amazed and so very humbled when He does.
I have prayed some pretty, well actually very serious prayers.
God has taken them to heart.
So I expect I will see some pretty serious trials and testings.
I suppose at this point I'm just glad I made it to where I was going without causing a major wreck on the interstate!
