Heard but not answered

"If GOD answers all our prayers in the past, we would shed more tears than when GOD didn't answer."

He hears all our prayers, for that I am sure, but I have no right at all to ask him respond to all my petition as I wish.
Truly life would be a disaster if all my prayers were answered.
Some prayers when I was young were awful, a case in point "oh dear god, I wish I was the only child at home; or I wish I could pass the exam without studying; I wish SPM will be canceled; I wish....I wish....".
Grown ups still says awful prayer at times.

We pray for what we think best for us, at times our petition is base on the desire of our flesh and not the benefits of the Kingdom. 
God knows what best for us and His Kingdom.
I know Him deeper through the aswered and also the unanswered prayers, both build my faith and strengthen my love.

Dear Lord, thank you for hearing all my prayers, though the unanswered one often seems to make me  feel miserable but I am glad that You withold those petition for my own good, though your heart ache seeing me crying and begging. I shall trust you regardless of whether you'll grant me or not, for your love and grace is beyong my suffiient.
