God answers our prayers exactly when we need to hear and tells us exactly what we need to hear. The timing and what is conveyed are very deliberate and intentional.
“God has infinite attention, infinite leisure to spare for each one of us. He doesn't have to take us in the line. You're as much alone with Him as if you were the only thing He'd ever created.”
― C.S. Lewis, Beyond Personality: The Christian Idea of God
Since God stands outside of the framework we call time. It makes sense that God can converse with us, after we have left this existence, perhaps even invite us to offer our own advice, after we have passed on from this life to go back and look at each moment in time and tell us exactly what we need to hear. Sometimes maybe the answer needs to be silence.
I theorize that sometimes perhaps even the answers we get, may even originate from ourselves. The selves that have already moved on from this mortal existence. The selves that have not only seen, but lived the future.
Perhaps the being that God is and that we could potentially be, stand outside of time. Perhaps the fabric of existence and the expansion of the universe and our physical Earth causing friction on the fabric of space-time, are what creates the illusion of time. That once we leave our mortal bodies behind, we step back into a reality where time is not a factor. That we see it for what it truly is. Something that only exists in this terrestrial realm.
I can't help but wonder if the answer I felt came from God to trust Lexi, may have somehow, someway perhaps originated from myself. That, that is perhaps the best advice I could give myself for this moment in time.
That listening to answers from our prayers, is listening to the best advice that not only God could give, but that we ourselves could give. Oh how important this bit of knowledge opens up, to listen to the answers we receive when we pray. Oh the infinite love of God!
To love and to serve Him. To surrender our will to his. How much we stand to gain by exercising faith in him and to listen to the answers we receive.
