Answered Prayer

This morning I recieved a call from my ex-wife. She was crying uncontrollably. I asked her what was wrong, and she proceded to tell me that she couldn't pick up her daughter this weekend. She said that they had a restructure at work and all of the people who had made the prior schedules were no longer there. She has had the same schedule for the last 2+ years. Under the new system, she was only going to get one weekend off a month, and she wasn't sure when that weekend would be. I told her that was terrible. She kept apologizing to me about it, but I told her I felt bad for her because she wouldn't be able to see her daughter only once a month. I tried to say the right things and calm her down the best that I could, but what can you really say in a situation like this.

I hung up the phone and immediately started to pray. I prayed for her, her job, her boss, everyone that would be involved in this decision. I prayed that GOD would give her peace and comfort to deal with the news she had just recieved. I prayed that GOD would give her boss some wisdom and compassion for the situation. I just prayed that the whole thing would just work out. I left it all in GOD'S hands! I laid it at His feet.

About two hours later I recieved another call from my ex-wife. She was unbelievably calm. She then told me that she had a talk with her boss, and that it was all just a big misunderstanding. She did have this weekend off, she would be able to see her daughter, and that things were still the same. PRAISE GOD!!! I believe that my prayer was answered immediately! I didn't get anxious about the situation or angry, I just started to pray and trust GOD! He came through like He always does! All the praise and glory to You GOD!!
