The Prayer Is Already Recorded in Heaven
St. Bernard of Clarivaux said, “Dear brothers, you should never doubt your prayer, thinking that it might have been in vain, for I tell you truly that before you have uttered the words, the prayer is already recorded in heaven. Therefore you should confidently expect from God one of two things: either that your prayer will be granted, or, that if it is not granted, the granting of it would not be good for you.”
Ryan, I know I’ve read this three days after posting, but it was right on time. Wow what a confirmation that God has already heard the prayers of my heart before they are uttered from my mouth. These past few weeks have been rough, but I am so thankful God has been with me every step of the way, even before I’ve asked. Thanks for sharing this! Blessings!
