For some reason, we all expect prayers to be answered immediately and miraculously, and we are so easily discouraged and give up with persistent prayer.  This message, and the small group study that goes with it, is designed to help us stay persistent in our bold prayers!

God enjoys hearing about our plans (big and small) because we are inviting him to be involved. He also enjoys when we learn about his plans, accept these, and pray with these in mind.

Have you ever been mad at God or confused about prayer because God did not answer your prayer? Our prayers are not always answered in the ways we think they should be.
