When God Answers Prayer It is Hard to Keep Quiet

When God answers prayer it is hard to keep quiet about it. A story is told of a man who borrowed money from a widow lady, promising to invest it safely and at good interest. This man not only made poor investments with the money but failed to pay any interest to the lady. The only thing the lady could do was pray. The matter dragged on for several years. One day a Christian businessman, who had known about this situation, asked if he could buy the entire indebtedness and try  to collect it. He said that if he didn’t succeed he would just write it off as a business debt. This lady and her family had prayed about this matter for many years and had just turned it over to the Lord. It was such a joy to them to see how God heard and answered their prayers through the kindness of a wealthy Christian brother. (Source Unknown).
