Motives

Before my walk with Christ my prayers and thoughts were all things for my pleasure. I still need to think before I pray to see if this is all for my gain or God’s. Did you ever pray to win the lottery or for a super fancy vehicle? We should be praying for God to meet our needs and not our wants, and that can be difficult at times. God’s will needs to be first however and our needs second.
