Praying is not so that we can get what we are asking for. Praying is meant to transform our lives, to bring us closer to God! We do not pray so that we can control Him, but so that we can open our hearts to be led by Him. "When we recognize our suffering as a catalyst for sainthood, rather than a cause of self pity, we are waking up enough to realize what life is all about!" (Gregory Watson)
