in our efforts to try our best to rationalize our way through life or come up with logically reasons and solutions to answers the "whys" we often seem to come up short. i find myself in the process thinking that my reasoning is legitimate and the reality is that it just may be...
for instance... "i don't pray much anymore because god doesn't answer my prayers." this is from a conversation that i had last night... now we all know how silly that sounds, BUT we have all said that or thought that on some level... so how legitimate this actually sounds in many ways its just simply NOT true... and therefore becomes an EXCUSE!
how about... "its difficult to risk because of the uncertainty." very logical and rational right? but nonetheless becomes an excuse that paralyzes us from taking risks in life from past experiences.
our excuses will define us if we let them.
F

I feel like I make excuses alot
and in the end all their is, is dissapointment

Answers to our prayers...
Read in a book one time...it's not that Jesus is silent we just listen for the wrong answers. Basically we listen for an answer to our worldly problems while Jesus is busy with the heavenly ones.
A good verse for this reminder 1John 5:14-15
