"Your Father knows what you need before you ask him." - Matthew 6:8
If God our Father knows our needs before we ask him, then why do we need to pray for anything? God indeed knows our needs, and He knows our wants - and He knows the difference. But we don't, and it is presumptuous of us to think we know our own needs best. That is why that, while we do not need to babble on and on to God about what we
need, we do need to humbly pray to seek His will in our needs and wants. So, the next time you think you "need" something, pray the "Our Father" slowly, humbly bringing your desires before Him. Then listen for him to respond. You may be surprised by the answer.
