Roish Nee Ad Geamagh Neem’s Clashtyn Before They Call I Will Hear (I)
Ren sharvaant aeg goll un laa gys e benainshter lesh seaghyn trome ayns e haigney. Cha row ee er clashtyn voish e moir v’ee cha graihagh urree son tra liauyr, as v’ee smooinniaghtyn dy row red ennagh er haghyrt jee ny veagh yn voir eck er screeu roish yn tra shen. A young servant went one day to her mistress with heavy sorrow in her mind. She hadn’t heard from her mother, who she was so fond of, for a long time, and she was thinking that something had happened to her or her mother had (would have) written before that time.
Ren yn ven anshter gra ree, dy cheau ny kiarailyn er y Çhiarn Yeesey as gyn dy ve ceaut sheese myr v’ee, ren yn çharvaant geaishtagh ree dy arryltagh as streeu dy yannoo myr ren e benainshter gra ree as loayrt rish yn Chiarn mychione yn oyr shoh. The mistress said to her to cast the cares on the Lord Jesus and not to be downcast as she was. The servant listened to her willingly and strived to do as the mistress told her and spoke to the Lord about this reason.
Cre cha leah as ren yn ansoor çheet . Moghrey laa ny vairagh, haink yn inneen gys y venainshter lesh eddin ghennal gra; “O ta mee er gheddyn scrieunyn as ta mee cha moarnagh jeh my scrieunyn.” How soon the answer came. On the morning of the next day, the girl came to the mistress with a cheerful face saying “O I have received a letter and I’m so proud of my letter.
Cre’n oyr dy row ee cha moyrnagh jeh ny screeunyn? Cre’n oyr dy row ee er gheddyn ad ayns ansoor gys padjer? Why (was) she so proud of my letter? Why had she received them in answer to prayer?

Sometimes God keeps you waiting waiting for an answer to your prayers, but at other times like this he answers fast and whilst he hears at all times. He sometimes delays, but he is to trying your faith. Let us therefore not ever lose belief that he hears but believe surely that he will, in his own time, give us an answer and give us the desire of our hearts in his own time and in his own way.
