Unanswered Prayers?

My first Charismatic retreat was back in April of 1996. My place was booked by a close friend’s mother who wanted my friend to do the retreat & thought I’d be good company for her!
As God would have it, I was touched and she wasn’t.
Over the years my friend and I have continued to be very close. During this time I not only prayed for her continuously, I also took her for many retreats at various different retreat centers in and out of Mumbai. Nothing seemed to work.
In the worldly sense, there was nothing wrong with my friend - but I could always see in her deep inner wounds, unforgiveness and hurts. I knew that in order for her to be truly happy she needed an experience of the Lord - as do all of us.
