2 Corinthians 12:8
As people of faith, we get excited and inspired when we hear or have a testimony of God's yes in our lives. And rightfully so!
Captain Scott O' Grady, the Air Force pilot who ejected from his fighter plane on June 2, 1995, when his aircraft was hit as he flew a mission over Bosnia, attributed his survival to God's love for him and his love for God, and God heard and answered his prayer just like he prayed.

When God gives permission for that job to come your way, and yet you may know that there may have been others better qualified, better skilled, interviewed better, but you got the position. You are in that praise dance mode.
When we have prayed for God to intervene in a situation that we know could be difficult if he does not, and he does, we can ...
