Last night was another night at Institute in Toowoomba and overall the evening was alright. The evening could have been so much better in some ways. One of those ways would be, to go home early. I decided to be the driver to drive home after the socialising. I felt a little overwhelmed after making the decision and I didn't have a clear understanding why.
As I started to drive, the weather was cold and fine. Within 10 minutes of the drive, it was good until the weather changed to very thick fog unexpectedly and I could barely see anything for 30 minutes. I immediately to express to Heavenly Father how I felt through a silent prayer with real intent. He cleared up the fog and I was able to see clearly again.
I know why Heavenly Father doesn't always answer to our prayers, other than he answers in his own timing or we aren't asking in a right way or not having much faith and trust. Sometimes the things that we ask for through prayers DO tests our faith and trust in him.
I felt calm after I said my silent prayer but I still felt somewhat scared because I was driving 20km to 30km below the speed limit when I was driving through the fog. While I was driving through the fog, I was remembering my last experience when I was driving through a very thick fog.
I must admit my last experience wasn't pleasant. I drove around 7am to pick up my friend and her children from a relatives house that they stayed over night at. I had no problems driving there but on the way back home, having my friend and her children in the car, the weather was very thick fog. I was scared and I forgot to say a prayer. Due to not saying a prayer, it remained to a very thick fog until after 30 minutes or so being home.
I learnt from that last experience, to say a prayer for seeking personal revelations, say a prayer when times in need such as for peace, comfort, say a prayer when it's necessary such as for guidance, safety and other reasons but most importantly to pray always.
