But prayer is not for asking things from God. Not as I see it. Prayer is for giving. It’s for offering yourself to God, for devoting yourself to whatever it is He wants of you. And whatever that is, all we can do is accept it. Through prayer we are closer with Him, which gives us strength. But that’s only half of it. We give God strength as well, when we give of ourselves, unselfishly. Why ask Him for His help, when you can give Him yours instead?”
