With every tefilla, we rise a little higher and higher. Maybe it takes till the 101th tefilla to finally become that person who has after all that work and prayer and growth a person who deserves that which he/she is praying for.aminspirationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02226594722883362146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4895527034843171824.post-18199059023395232652010-09-13T19:53:08.578-04:002010-09-13T19:53:08.578-04:00Aminspiration- it's hard to remember that desp...Aminspiration- it's hard to remember that despair is the yetzer hara- that is a good way of looking at it.<br /><br />BJG-I like that answer!

I don’t know."<br /><br />Maybe it's the fact that you stuck with the tefilla after not being answered the first 100 times, that makes you deserve to have your tefilla answered.
