"It is so hard when sincere prayer about something we desire very much is not answered the way we want. It is especially difficult when the Lord answers no to that which is WORTHY and would give us great JOY and HAPPINESS...it seems reasonable and so consistent with our happiness to have a favorable answer. It is hard to understand why our exercise of deep and sincere faith from an obedient life does not bring the desired result...
If all matters were immediately resolved at your first petition, you could not grow. Your Father in Heaven and His beloved Son love you PERFECTLY. They would not require you to experience a moment more of difficulty than is absolutely needed for your personal benefit or for that of those you love." -Elder Richard G. Scott

I guess this is what we call growing pains.
