~Is your love of Him conditional upon Him satisfying your demand list?
~God isn’t Santa Claus
~He already knows what you want, why do you bother telling him?
~He already knows what is best for you, why would you try to persuade Him to change?
~Either what you’re praying for is the ideal thing for you or it isn’t. If it is, why would you imply that God isn’t wise enough to know this. If it isn’t, why would you imply that God is imperfect enough to be persuaded into doing an inferior thing?
~If God’s Will is perfect, why do you bother expressing your own?
~People spend so little time in prayer as it is, why waste that time with something so much less important than adoring God, confessing to God, loving God, or thanking God?
~If we’re supposed to be content in all circumstances, why would we bother asking God to give us particular circumstances?
~If we’re supposed to thank God for everything, why would we bother praying to God for anything in particular?
~Don’t you get annoyed with a friend or a relative whose only reason for getting in contact with you is to ask you to do something for him?
~Consider the college student who only calls home to ask for money.
