If he prayed for courage, does God give him courage, or does he give him opportunities to be courageous? If someone prayed for the family to be closer, do you think God zaps them with warm fuzzy feelings, or does he give them opportunities to love each other?
Evan Baxter: Those aren't in my plans.

It's amazing how a simple movie can influence my life. I needed a nudge to remind me that God does love me. I may not understand it fully but He does. I just need to trust Him and let go of all my worries. If someone prays for patience, you think God gives them patience? Or does he give them the opportunity to be patient? I love it!
