We pray for strength, for guidance, for comfort in seasons that feel heavier than we expected. And then we wait. For a sign. For a feeling. For something unmistakable that tells us God heard us.
But what if He already answered - and we have been looking past it?
The friend who checked in on a day we told no one about. The colleague who stayed behind to ask how we were really doing. The person who said the exact thing we needed to hear without knowing we needed to hear it. These were not coincidences. These were God moving through the people He already placed around us.
Scripture is full of this. God provided for Elijah through ravens, and then through a widow. He answered Moses' exhaustion through Jethro's counsel. He did not send a miracle. He sent a person.
Sometimes God's provision does not look the way we imagined. Sometimes it has a name, a face, and a phone number we have not called in a while.
The answer to our prayer might already be sitting across from us. We just have to be willing to receive it.
