Around the time I re-embraced Catholicism, I heard this lovely saying. I only wish I could remember where I heard it.
God has three answers to a prayer:
1. Yes.
2. Not now.
3. I have a better idea.
I love that and think of it all the time, especially when a prayer is not answered as I requested.
Last Sunday, what did I find in our parish bulletin, but another take, which I thought I'd share.
Here are the four ways God answers prayer:
1. No, not yet.
2. No, I love you too much.
3. Yes, I thought you'd never ask.
4. Yes, and here's more.
Another lovely thing to remember.
