The following below are some extracts from my diary dating from 2005- 2006. My main aim is to hightlight the fact that God is really there and that he is always ready to help only when you want to be helped. Infact there are moments in my life that i just can’t believe what God did to rescure me from my situation, i hope if you pray to him with all your heart he is always ever ready to answer you at the right time.
29/08/2005 - A prayer to God Dear God, you have less than 4 days to determine my future, if you are really the God who brought the Israelis from Egypt, if you are really the impossible God, prove it to me and I will worship you with all my heart, this is my vow with you. Show me within these 4 days that you are really God and I’m yours forever.
AMEN 31/08/2005 - Prayer to the Lord Dear God, I just want to remind you that you have only 2 more days more to answer my prayer.AMEN
01/09/2005 - Prayer Answered God is really a true God, he is really great, he is really the maker of heaven and earth. He has answered and proven to me that he is really the lord. Lord in return i’m yours forever do whatever you want with me.The great news and prayer of my life has been answered today. After leaving Ghana for Austria and now in the UK i’m now finally going to attend college.I’m attending 6th Form on the 6th of September. I just can’t wait to be in the classroom. Lord one more thing; don’t deny me my EMA money!!!!! (AMEN)
02/09/2005 - normal d Yesterday’s miracle is something I will never forget. i will always remember and thank God for that.
06/09/2005 - First day at school At long last I find myself back in a class room again after 2 years of waiting and being in the house. It was fun but busy I’m now a little bit use to the facilities there and also I’m yet to find myself a friend.Everyone is nice, I’m mean all those I’ve talked to03/07/2006 - A day at York University
Had one of the very best days of my life today, and this makes me more wanting to go to the university. College organised a trip to York University, Oh my God what a town and the university was very great, I’m just keeping my fingers cross for my results.This makes me wanting to go to university more.24/08/2006 - As Level Results Had my AS- level exam results today and they were very bad, failed in all 3 exams i took.Thinking of repeating and changing courses in September. I’m sad but there is nothing I can do, all I go to do now is move on and forget about this. There is more to life than this and also there are more lessons to be learnt from this and also many things to correct in other to put everything right next year June.
25/08/2006 - Dad’s Advice
Dad advised and encouraged me on how to move on and forget what has just happened.That was really helpful taught he was disappointed (from my point of view), he was proud of me.I always love to bring smiles to his face, he is always there for me, and i will never let him down.All I pray about now is God should give me the strength to carry on and achieve my aim in life.06/09/2006 - NEW ERA, NEW LIFE, NEW BEGINING College started today, and I must confess today was the day that I really enjoyed being a student, I just couldn’t believe myself. If you know me very well, you would notice I’m a shy person, but from today’s experience, I don’t think I’m anymore. I over came that today, I was of myself today, chatted a lot, made new friends like Dwayne and Adele.I think this year is really my year and I give glory to the Lord.
08/09/2006 - Start of something Gr8 Went down stairs to the college enrichment fair.I put my name down for Burngreave Messenger. (Burngreave is the community i live in now with my parents)I stated that I was interested in writing articles for the Messenger.
16/09/2006 - The start of a long way………………
Lisa the woman in charge of the Burngreave messenger called me today to be in her office.I went and I was given a task, the task was about writing an article about a hairdresser named Andreas, the owner has recently moved from Spital Hill to Pitmoore Road, so I need to make the Burngreave community know of this move. 22/09/2006 - Interview with John (Andreas hairdressing) This is my first interview with a stranger. I went down to Pitmoore Road, entered the shop and spoke to John. There were a lot of people there and to tell you the truth, I was afraid, but I kept it away and did the interview.
23/09/2006 - Article writing I started writing the article interviewed about yesterday.It’s looking fine. I sent a copy to Lisa to have a look.
25/09/2006 - Approval
Had a reply from Lisa that the Article is great, so I should be expecting it in the magazine very soon. 30/09/2006 - RESULTS Guess what? I came from church and Dad called me, I taught he was going to start one of his talks, but he wasn’t this time.He just handed me the September Issue of the Burngreave messenger with my article clearly written with my name.I am very proud of myself today.Thanks be to God.Friends it keeps going on and on, i hope my experience with the Lord and life in general can help you make few changes in your life, please remember God is always there when you need him, just tell him what ever you want him to do and for you, all you have to do is have faith and believe that he will do it at the right time.
Stay blessed and wait for more extracts.

Just curious… What if God had have chosen to not answer your prayer… maybe not the way you expected… maybe not at all? Wouldn’t He still be God?
September 2nd, 2007 at 7:10 pm
He may choose not to answer because that might not be right for you, not the way you expected? God is God and no one detects for him he only answers at the right time. “IN HIS TIME HE MAKES EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL AND PERFECT”
“There is a way that may seem right according to man but the opposite to God” I would suggest that you ask for his help before you apporach anything not after it goes wrong, he is always there and ready. Believe and trust in him, is not easy!

Just typed in never leave me nor forsake me ever be my friend in google and I found this page. I had a similar experience and my conclusion there is no doubt that Jesus The Father and the Holy Spirit Exist. He has been good to me all those years when I thought or felt like it was me against an unloving world. He cares and is always there for his children even when we dont ask he is still faithful. Hes saved me from another one of those situations last night and I didnt ask.

does anyone know if there is any other information about this subject in other languages?

I am happy for you that God answered your prayers the way you wanted when you wanted. But, I have to say that God is not a delivery man or a slot machine. Suppose He didn’t; would you still believe He is God?
When I asked God to save my grandson who had cancer, His answer was “no”. Instead, that sweet child was subjected to so many operations from the time he was 7 that by the time he was 27, his body was so worn out from so many operations and amputations that he just up and died.
Does that mean that God didn’t hear me? Does that mean that God does not exist? Not at all. I don’t know why things happened as they did. I’ll have to ask God when I get to heaven. I do know that God has a plan. Who am I to question it? I’m not able to set the planets in order or create a marvel that is the human body. So, I’ll have to trust His judgment regarding what is best.
However, when it comes to prayers for myself, 90% of the time I felt He did not answer - at least not the way I wanted to be answered. Thus, I went through some very hard times and came to the conclusion that He just wasn’t there for me.
Over the years I’ve had many breaks with God. Even to the point of planning my suicide. The fact that I’m still here is a testament to His faithfulness. Why I’m still here is another story for another time; but I can tell you, I had a good plan that would have gone off very smoothly but for the Grace of God (He intervened and I know it).
A lot has happened to me during my 60+ years on this planet. Most of it bad. Looking back, though, I can see where I was the source of most of my troubles. God couldn’t bless me because I couldn’t hear Him. There were reasons for my God deafness. I was too distracted by the events of my life (too self-involved) and His voice was drowned out by my own internal conversation. God speaks through the obvious and the subtle: a word from a passing stranger, a song on the radio, a sermon from a pastor or radio or TV evangelist, a sign in a store window, a book, a blog such as Testimony Share. Everything is His, thus He accesses it all to speak to us.
It has taken all these years for me to understand that. Thus my purpose has been on hold all that time. Now that I know better, I must direct all my attention to achieving that purpose.
I have no regrets. All the bad experiences of my life, all the bad (for me)people who came into my life, have come together to make me who I am. I realize now that, for me, the path I had to walk was necessary (I am a hard-headed and determined individual). Even so, God did not create that path: I created it for myself. Had I heeded His warnings and listened for His voice, things might have been easier. However, by some miracle, He was able to save me from myself such that I now possess the strength and courage to boldly move ahead in the direction for which I was created.
God is now able to move in my life the way He intended. Because of this, for the first time in my life, I have peace, happiness and confidence. Even though I don’t know how I’ll get there, I am now sure of where I’m going. That’s because I’ve gotten my ego out of the way so I can trust God and so I’m leaving the details to Him.
I praise God every day that I have evolved from a frightened, confused child to the strong God loving, woman that I am today.
My favorite verse is written on my heart. I say it several times day? 1Cor 15:57. I could write it out here, but it’s helpful to look it up and see for yourself. If there’s no Bible handy, go to Blue Letter Bible at …blueletterbible.org
