The problem with prayer.

[ignoramus]

Here's the official answer.

Why Do We Need To Pray?
When we pray, of course, we are not pointing out anything new to God. He does not need us to remind Him of our needs. So why doesn't God just give without our asking?

Because we need to pray. Prayer helps us refine and affirm what we want out of life. It's a process of maturity.
If a billionaire father handed over unlimited cash on a silver platter, his child would grow up spoiled and irresponsible.

So too, if God gave us everything automatically, we may never define for ourselves what we want in life. True, life would be easy. But we would not grow.
Since God has our best interests at heart, He wants us to earn it. Because that's what will make us great.


(So basically kids, talk to yourself a lot and if you say it enough times, you might start believing ...whatever?)
PS, Remember to close your eyes so you won't see how ridiculous you look talking to yourself.
