And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said,
“Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.
John 11:41b NKJV
We can give praise every day for the blessing of knowing the Father hears us. We don't serve a stone statue that has no capability of hearing and understanding our plight.
No, He sympathizes with our frailties, and tells us to come boldly to the throne of grace when we need help. He knows our weaknesses yet promises to hear and act when we ask according to His will.
He promises to answer when we call. How amazing is that?
The God of the universe hears me when I call.
Daily, I should be thanking God for such a privilege!

This is definitely a blessing we often take for granted. Think if we tried to get the Governor's ear or the President's! And here the Creator of Heaven & Earth will stop and listen any time of day or night.
