Chris.
Thank God that He is a Living our God! We can bring our prayers and petitions to Him. There is nothing that we can do to make God answer our prayers because He is God. We can, however, come to Him in sincere Faith and Believe in Him and His Promises. We Believe that He Will answer our prayers in His Way.
