A man was praying to God for a flower and a butterfly. The following day, he was so disappointed when what he got was a cactus plant and a caterpillar. Days passed a flower came out from the cactus and the butterfly from the caterpillar. When our faith is still in the infant stage, we are like the man in the story. We seem t oforget the way how God operates- in His time, for He knows what is best for us.
The barometer of a mans spirituality can be measured by the tenor of his prayer. The spiritually immature person's prayer is supplication/ petition.While, the spiritualy mature persons prayer is thanksgiving. Why? Because he is aware that through experience that before he prayed for something ,God already answered his prayer- not in our limited way but in his abundance- in His time.
