Did you hear about the woman who had a male parrot who prayed all the time? She had a friend who had a female parrot who cussed all the time. And they agreed that the praying parrot would be a good influence on the cussing one, so they put them together. As soon as they put the cussing parrot in the cage, the male praying parrot looked up from his prayers, paused and said, Thank you, Lord, for answering my prayers. Sorry. God doesn't answer prayers, you know. In fact, he always does. You may not like the answer very much, but it's helpful to remember that he really does know best, and it's best for him to make the final decisions. Ruth Graham said that if God always said yes to her prayer request, he would have married the wrong man. Several times. I'm Steve Brown of Key Life Network. You think about that.
