Here's a prayer for daily use from my faith:

"I bear witness, O my God, that Thou hast created me to know Thee and to worship Thee. I testify at this moment to my poverty and to Thy wealth, to my powerleaaness and to Thy wealth. There is none other God but Thee, the Help in Peril, the Self-Subsistent."

Where's the petty request there?

Regards,
Scott

Yes.

We're not know for praying for personal gain or reward. We're taught that worship for hope of heaven or fear of Hell is not acceptable worship. God should be worshipped because He is God, and we are not.

Scott

Explain then why if people are not so bad as you claim then why does the majority of the population of this planet live in abject poverty, why does the richest 'democracy' on Earth bomb (poor!) civillian centres to eradicate 'insurgents'?
I can't, but why should I? We are talking about the people who are praying, not about the racist or anything like that. You asked about prayers and I answered you about prayer.

Quote:
LOL...not that its a laughing matter, but like I said what goes around comes around.
Once again I agree. But why do you keep saying that to me. Is something going to happen to me.

God's ability to answer all prayers yet not doing it is the same as not being able to answer all prayers for all practical intents and purposes Emu.
Not at all... I have the ability to destroy all the drinking glasses in my house, the fact that I do not does not in any way "for all intents and purposes" mean that I can not.
