Are you satisfied with "Thy will be done?"

Jack’s Winning Words 10/17/13
“Prayer does not change God, but changes the one who prays.”  (Soren Kierkegarrd)  In church last Sunday people were invited to pray for those with special needs.  I prayed in silence, while some spoke aloud.  Why do people pray?  Is it a request for miracles?  Is it to get God to change his mind?  I’ve come to see prayer as a way to let “a friend” know what’s on my mind and to ask the omnipotent one to work his will that is good.    ;-)  Jack
