Heavenly Father doesn't solve our problems he has given us the tools that we need in order to solve them ourselves. Alma 58:11 says,

"Yea, and it came to past that the Lord our God did 1.visit us with assurances that he would deliver us; yea, insomuch that 2.he did speak peace to our souls, and did 3.grant us great faith, and did cause us that 4.we should hope for our deliverance in him."
-These ways are the ways that our Father in Heaven speaks to us and answers our prayers.

God doesn't always answer our prayers in the way we want them, He answers them in the way we need them.

-It is important to remember the Lord God and the many things which He does for us. It is easy to get frustrated and upset when going through trials and hard times but that doesn't do anyone any good. It just makes making decisions that much harder. We need the spirit to be with us to help us and guide us through these hard times so why not live worthy for the spirit and for guidance instead of getting upset and turning away from the Lord?

Blessing- God speaks to us when we are ready to listen.

Heber J. Grant said "I have heard men and women say that they were going to let their sons and daughters grow to maturity before they sought to teach them the principles of the gospel, that they were not going to cram the gospel down them in their childhood, before they were able to comprehend it. When I hear men and women say this, I think they are lacking faith in the principles of the gospel and do not comprehend it as they should. The Lord has said it is our duty to teach our children in their youth, and I prefer to take His word for it rather than the words of those who are not obeying His commandments.. I may know that the gospel is true, and so may my wife; but I want to tell you that your children will not know that the gospel is true, unless they study it and gain a testimony for themselves. Parents are deceiving themselves in imagining that their children will be born with a knowledge of the gospel." (Richard O. Cowan, The Church in the Twentieth Century, p. 319)*...

Gordon B. Hinckley said, "We all do a lot of studying, but most of us don't do much meditation. We don't take time to think. I'd like to suggest that next fast day . . . everybody in this hall set aside an hour or two. Sit by yourself. Go in the bedroom and lock the door. Go out in the yard under a tree. Go in your study if you have one and shut the door, and think about yourself and your worthiness. Read from this great book [Book of Mormon]...There's a great word that's used, 'ponder.' "'Ponder.' What do we mean by 'ponder'? Well, I think it simply means kind of quietly thinking things through. Ponder what you have read. Ponder your life. Are you worthy, are you living the commandments...?" (Church News, 01/06/96) -Christ commanded them to; 1. " ponder upon the things which I have said, 2. ask the Father, in my name, that ye many understand, 3. prepare your minds for the morrow ," (3 Nephi 17:3) -The thing...
