In what ways have your prayers been answered?

I strongly believe that our Heavenly Father listens to each and every one of our prayers, no matter how big or small. The important thing to remember, however, is that if He is to do His part in answering our prayers, we much do ours. I remember when I was in nursing school, there was a Pharmacology test that I had not prepared for very well. I was too busy attending football games and spending time with friends to pay attention to the impending test that was to drown me! Needless to say, prayer alone was not enough to save me from the C- I had so rightfully deserved. (Luckily, through doing things the right way, I was able to manage an overall B in the class!) When Nursing School had reached it's dreadful end, it was time to study for the NCLEX, or Registered Nurse certification boards. I truly believe that I could not have passed it just by studying alone. Don't get me wrong, I studied for an entire month, 6 days a week, 4 hours a day, and not once missed the commitments I had made to myself! When I went to sleep at night, I said a prayer requesting help to remember all that I had studied throughout nursing school, as well as what I was reviewing. When the time came to take the Boards, I finished in a blazing 43 minutes, and passed with flying colors! I still remember running out and calling my dad immediately, saying, "I don't know if I passed, because the test seemed TOO easy! That's a bad sign, right!?" Nevertheless, the 72 hours passed with SO SLOWLY, but when the time came for me to find out if I was a Registered Nurse, tears flooded my eyes when I found out through a friend that my name was in bold letters under the current nurse licensures for the State of Utah! I truly believe that Heavenly Father is always interested in our concerns and wishes to help us, if only we will allow him the chance, and do our part to show him how much we truly care about our requests.
