We often think that God is a computer and our prayers are like computer keys that if I do not press the right keys, the graces will not come out from it. God is not like that. We should simplify our prayers. Do not pray in such an elaborate manner to ask the Lord to provide you with house and lot with toilet bath and jacuzzi. We do not have to pray for specifics. We do not have to go into particulars. Remember the Gospel "Thy will be done".
"Thy will be done". Because if it is God 's will, it cannot be but the best for us. On the other hand, we can go on so elaborately with our prayers but if it is not God's will, even it happens, it amounts to nothing.
Let us simplify our prayers... Let us just ask for a simple life, a simple, faithful life. The only things we have to say is "Lord, Your will be done. If it is your will, it is gonna be the best. If it is your will, it cannot be wrong."
