Prayer

I found Gary's teaching today on prayer to be interesting. He made a comment that stuck with me as I went home today. He noted that when we ask God for something in prayer, its about something more then just what we ask Him, but also about something deeper. Ok...I'm paraphrasing here but you get the point. I looked back at my last two years and I realized how many things I asked God without sharing some of my deeper motives. I don't feel bad about it or anything. It's not like I realized I wasn't sharing with God. Sometimes we just need to think and pray about it more...sometimes we just simply don't see what we are burying in our hearts. I can only change the now. As much as I pray now I know I need to get deeper with God. I want Him, and not just because I want a good life. I want Him because when its all said and done, I love being with Him, and knowing He's there. I'm all for a deeper commitment to prayer.
