Praying and thanking God
When you bring your prayer requests to God, lay out your concerns before God. Speak to God candidly; pour out your heart. Then thank God for the answer that God have set in motion long before you can discern the results. When your requests come to mind again, continue to thank God for the answers that are on the way. Never forget God knows what you need even before you need it.
“Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.” Colossians 4:2
