I just want to share that two years ago, I went to see St.

> youngest saint whose job is to grant people’s wishes?
>
> So I went with friend Lyn and I must admit the life of the little
> child, Therese, intrigued me. It turned out she was a child who wanted to
> serve her God more than anything else in the world. Thus, in every chore

> her master.

> Since all her siblings were Carmelite nuns, she became a nun

> But she left a journal (suggested reading!) which contained all

> Believe it or not, my wish was granted! Not because I said a

I have discovered that prayers made to god are answered through the good people around us and are never answered by magical means.
God must have people to work through in order to answer many of our requests which we make.
The answer to many of our prayers lies in the hands of those around us especially on our family tree.
On the last day we will know this.
Many people do not know it now.
Of course there are situations which no human being can answer which require miracles.
If everyone on earth had their spiritual eyes of their soul opened by God ,never again would anyone be able to commit serious grave sins .
If we wish to have any chance of having our requests granted by god, we too must be generous to those around us especially the less fortunate.
