Sometimes I thank God.....

For unanswered prayers. This song has a whole new meaning to me. When I was dating Matt, I knew this was the guy I was going to marry, I was so comfortable around him, he knew more about me than I knew myself. I didn't even care to look at any other guys when I was with him. He was my world, it was LOVE and nothing could change that. I prayed and prayed about if he was the right guy for me. And I would never get an answer. And if I did, it wasn't the one I wanted. I pretty much told God "Im marrying him no matter what so please give me your approval" I learned the hard way that God doesnt negotiate on these things. haha. Well when we broke up I prayed again daily that he would text me, and again. Nothing. Well let me just tell you, God is a VERY smart man. He knew I wouldnt be able to handle it, even when he texted me MONTHS after the breakup it hurt. I prayed that we'd get back together. Where would I be if I had gotten back with him? Probably NOT worthy to go to the temple. Probably not as happy as I am right now. I'll admit I had a VERY hard first couple of months, breakups are never easy.I always wondered "If God really loved me, Why would he let this happen? Why is he letting his little girl hurt so much? Well how was God supposed to help me when I didnt ask for it? If I had married Matt, it wouldnt have been in the temple. That is my dream. I can't believe I considered giving it up for him.

Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when youre talkin to the man upstairs
That just because he doesnt answer doesnt mean he dont care
Some of gods greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
