Always expect an answer
When you pray,
pray with sincerity
believing your prayer is answered,
humbly practice certitude and gratitude;
thank God before you see the answer
and after receiving
your request.

Always look
for the less obvious,
for the unanticipated answer,
the answer you did not want, received anyway
because God has a sense of humor
and answers according
to His will.
