Strong reasoning. ( Isaiah 41 v 21)

 I read the following story ,about a Christian called ''Holy Ann'',who lived in Canada,she lived to be one hundred years old.    When she was young she worked for a family ,for a very small wage,they treated her very badly.They made her carry water for a mile up a steep hill. At one time there was a well near were she worked,but it had dried up.One night she was very tired,and she fell on her knees and cried to God; and while on her knees  she read these words,''I will open...fountains in the midst of  valleys; I will make the dry land springs of water.''. ''Produce your cause,saith the Lord; bring forth your strong reasons''So Holy Ann produced her cause before the Lord. She told Him how badly they needed water and how hard it was for her to carry the water up the hill; then she lay down and fell asleep. The next morning early she was seen  to take a bucket and start for the well.She was asked by someone where she was going, she told them she was going to the well to draw water, but they told her,that the well was dry. But Holy Ann carried on,and  when she got to the well,it was full of water,and the well never did run dry after that. We can't command God to answer our prayers, but we can reason with Him and use arguments, strong reasons,why He should answer our prayers.
