When the Answer is No

This book deals with a difficult topic, God's "no" answers to our prayers. What does it mean when we have prayed earnestly and do not receive what we want or think is best? Dandi Knorr suggests that we focus on our loving Lord and His ability to know all of our lives, not just our present circumstances. We should respond in faith to a no answer from God, since thanksgiving logically follows sincere trust in Him. Positive learning can result from a no answer to prayer, causing us to grow in Christlikeness.
