Prayers - are answered when we give God our heart
When you want to buy something in a shop, you have to offer something in exchange for what you want. If you will not pay, the shop will refuse to give you anything. In nature, in the spiritual world, everything happens exactly the same way as in the shops on earth: in order to receive, you must first give. God says, 'If you want me to answer your prayers, give me your heart.' And what do you answer? 'But, Lord, I can't, I've already given it away: I have a wife and children (or an adorable mistress). I no longer have a heart to give.' The reason why your prayers are not answered is that you always think you will be able to receive without giving anything in exchange. No, it's impossible. To obtain heaven's blessings, we must give at least part of our love, our conscious attention, our time and the efforts we make each day.
