While serving my mission in a dry hot place, I had contained within my heart while I prayed my dismay that I hadn't seen a rainstorm in a long time and that the thunderstorms always seemed to happen at night when I could not see them. That night I was awoken about 2 am by a distinct voice calling my name and telling me to go look outside. I did so to behold the rain falling and gigantic bolts of lightning being displayed in the distance. It was a fantastic sight to behold and I watched it for about an hour, feeling very fulfilled and satisfied. I contemplated what had occurred. The only explanation was an angel had heard my prayer and answered me. I received a testimony that God cares about our desires as well as our needs and His own plans. Whether or not the direction came from God to wake me, His servant did so because of my desire.

Another display of the tender mercies of the Lord! My wife and I are constantly taking note of the many tender mercies we witness in our own lives and in others'.

In church, people talk about prayer and say not to pray about trivial matters but I have had too many experiences like this to agree with them. I do believe that God our father cares about us and if we sincerely pour out our heart to Him, and ask for good gifts like this that He will hear and answer our prayers.

"If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?"

Good story. Thanks for sharing and reminding us that our father really cares about us as individuals.
