As a father we always should want the best for our children. The things they may ask for thier minds may not be developed for some of Gods blessings. For example, would you give large sums of money to a son that has a drug addiction? That would be more harmful to him than prayer and treatment. God supplies all our needs as needed.We must also be thankful for grace and mercy because he does not give what we deserved at times. Thank God
