Once a village was facing a severe drought situation. It had not rained for more than a year. It was getting difficult by the day even to get a one-course meal for most of the families.
The villagers decide to have a meeting along with the village heads (Panchayat) to find some solution. The next day, they all gathered and started discussing what could be done. After spending a couple of hours, there was no positive outcome. Just then, an elderly and wise person of the village suggested holding a mass prayer to please the rain god. All were in agreement.
The next morning, the entire village gathered in an open ground including elders and children to pray. However, in that entire crowd, there was one little boy who had come with the Umbrella!

The little boy had a strong faith that the prayers will be answered and he came prepared. But what about the rest? The reason why we don’t get results for our prayers is this lack of faith. If we pray wholeheartedly and with complete faith, there is no reason why our prayers will not get answered.
