trials

So one of the songs this Sunday was about when you have trials, to take them to God in prayer. My question is what if you do that and nothing happens? What do you do then? What if you don’t have peace about it, you don’t have an answer, and you still don’t know what to do? Matthew 7:7 was brought up later too…”everyone who asks will receive…” Well how long do you have to ask for? How long before you are answered? What if you have been asking for years and years, and nothing has been answered?
