God's Timing

“The Father is aware of us, knows our needs, and will help us perfectly. Sometimes that help is given in the very moment or at least soon after we ask for divine help. Sometimes our most earnest and worthy desires are not answered in the way we hope, but we find that God has greater blessings in store. And sometimes our righteous desires are not granted in this life.” (“Answers to Prayer,” Elder Brook P. Hales, April 2019)
It's a hard pill to swallow, sometimes, to know that the righteous desires we so earnestly pray for are not always granted in our time frame.   It can be hard to accept God's will and His timing, especially living in the time centered instant gratification world we live in now.  But like Elder Hales said, "The Father is aware of us, knows our needs, and will help us perfectly."  As hard as it can be-- and is, we need to trust in Him and remember that He is all-knowing and is always looking out for our best interest.

That's my two cents.
