Maybe you've heard it in the 'kiddie-gloves' way: "God ALWAYS answers prayers, but sometimes the answer is 'no'." But no. The answer is always the same; we're just not always making the right prayer.
And maybe you model your prayer after the Lord's Prayer (The Our Father), but there's only one part of that prayer that gets you 'the answer you're looking-for (usually a "yes-or-no"-question to which the only answer you'll take is "yes")---"Thy will be done."
Whether you think that's still in 'the address-portion of the prayer' (still calling upon God---he whose will is always what happens) or 'the request-portion' (telling him that you HOPE things go the way he chooses), your "answer" is always found out by 'whether you can see how your request parallels with his will.
