Thank God. Today was a crucial day, and like i talked about yesterday, today was actually the day where it was all or nothing. Yet yesterday night i prayed, and i told God that i didnt want to go back and live my past again, and i prayed for today to be smooth and everything to go well. And He answered my prayers. Today was by far the best day i've had this week. Today was just awesome. Thank God.

Yet i'd just like to point out something about prayers. In this case i'm not saying in any way that the way i pray is definitely right, neither am i saying that my prayers always work. What i'm about to say, actually concerns only one particular person. I promised i'd respond to your post, so here i am now.
Well, like i told you earlier on, sometimes we pray, but we dont receive. Why is that so? This doesnt mean that God wants all prayers to be beneficial to Him only, nor does it mean that God is ignoring you by not granting your requests. What it means in my point of view, is that what you're praying for, is actually not in line with what God wants you to have. It means that we are not doing things as He wants us to do. At the same time, it also means that what we're praying for may not be glorifying to His name. In the same way, one could pray for a million dollars cheque to one day fly into his window for his entire life, but he will never get it. Why? Its not because God cant make that happen, neither is it because God doesn't love that person. Rather its because that originally is not the plan that God has for us. And at the same time, how is that being glorifying to God? Get my drift?
And yes, you saw logan the sky angel cowboy, but you didn't get the actual intended message. Rather you only asked why did God take A away from you. Did you think about the following parts and did it even occur to you, that God had a reason for taking A away from you? He did it not because He's a sadist, He did it not because He hates you to the bones, but rather He did it so that you could learn from it. He did it for a purpose. Of course you are going to question me now, what the purpose is. Of course, everyone does that dont they. Something bad happens, they ask God why, they dont find an answer, and they start doubting. But look now, i'm not God. And i dont know what His purpose for you is. But what i do know, is that everything He does is with your best interests at heart. It may sound abit cliche right now, but what i'm trying to say is, at the end of the day, its all about whether you trust Him to make your life right again.
At the same time, i'm sure you are given choices in your life. Come to think about it, i guess i was wrong back then when i told you that you didnt have a choice. Because you do. You can firstly, choose to move on and find a new life, take the experiences that you've learnt with you and start all over again, or you could simply continue to think about what in the world happened to your life and why you are in this state right now. Like i said, each day when we wake up we are presented with 2 choices. Whether we want to live like yesterday, just a plain normal day with couple of problems here and there, or we could choose to be happy and make each day of our lives a unique one. The choice is yours.
Lastly, there are no problems that God cant handle. The question is, are you willing to let Him carry your burdens for you? Or do you want to continue carrying your own burdens and feeling helpless because that is the feeling that you've always felt comfortable in. Either way, if you think that settling all the problems you have at one shot is too much a task to handle, then start living with them. Dont be afraid to live with problems in your lives. Take them as they come, live the days as they come. Think less about the problems, but think more about how you are gonna make your day a one to remember. At the end of the road, you will realise and understand that God has everything settled for you and accounted for. You just have to believe.
