Default prayers can be answered without praying?

I know this sounds very strange, but it happens to me far more then I can think. Two to three weeks ago, I was paying for some food at a groshrie store thinking "do I have anything left in my bank to pay for it?" I am struggling financially because there is little work coming in. As I leave the store walking down the sidewalk, 120.00 in cash is on the sidewalk. I looked in front of me and in behind me. No one around. I picked it up, called the manager at the nearest store if anyone claims exactly what I had. Got no calls from the store so used it to buy more food.

Last night I did pray for a company to call me and PLEASE don't allow them for me to send them a resume via email. Today Got a call from a company who wants me to come in with resume in hand. I do not even recall even talking to its co-owners or sending them a resume. This was a REAL surprise.

A few years ago, I was at perhaps the busiest major intersection in Vancouver when my truck engine died. I had cars honking at me and a city buss driver yelling at me to move my truck since it died next to the buss stop. I bowed my head in discuss and said pleaaaase help me. At that moment, a member of my ward, called out to me asking if I needed help. I was shocked. Vancouver is BIG and here, a member called out my name at the moment when I needed help?.

I've had similar things happen on occassion. There is a scripture, but I can't remember the reference and I can't quote it exactly but its something about when we are living righteously to the best of our ability the Lord will answer the desires of our heart.

Sometimes my prayers are just an ongoing conversation with Heavenly Father.
