Silent prayers are shared between two, one silently whispering the desire of his heart, and the other listening, deciding whether their heart is prepared for the answer. How wonderful those prayers are when we finally receive our answer.
Recently I had to make a major decision. The decision would be whether to follow my heart or to follow God's instructions to my heart. Not knowing what I was to do I finally just left it up to God. I decided to follow my heart's instructions and proceeded onward by faith. What an amazing journey it is when you wake up and wonder where the Lord is going to take you. Not knowing your next move, just anticipating His.
Silent prayers are exactly that, silent. Answers, though, are quite different. They can be for you or the whole world to see. I find that when answers are silent that prayer is to be silent. Secrets shared between a child and their maker. How incredible that feeling is when you think you're sharing something with God. Then there are answers where God makes it so evident that you have to share your prayer with others so they will see the Glory of God.
Have you ever been in a room and heard a knock at the front door? Someone yells, "I'll get it" and opens the door. On the other side of the door is a man with flowers. He proceeds to ask for the person whose name is on the card and the flowers are given directly to that person. You look over to see this person read the card. They smile, smell the flowers, put the card back in the envelope, smile again and the flowers are put in a vase and, depending on what the card says, the card is either left with the flowers for all the world to see or put up in a drawer for their eyes only.
Silent prayers are flowers being delivered to our doors!

I'm just simply sharing my card. I want the whole world to read what my card says... and it simply says, "I love you Gina... keep going onward, because the best is yet to come!"
There is a heaven on earth, and it seems I was missing it. Now, I see it. Eyes wide open!
Praying everyone receives your flowers today, and please feel free to share your card with me. I'll celebrate with you!
Onward!
