Dear God,
"Maybe this isnt my first real prayer or maybe it is, but Lord please let it be the real you that I always pray to and please let it be the real me that prays all the time."
"When do I feel like I have to turn my old words into new words?"
Sometimes I wonder how my prayers measure up to the next person's, if my words carry any real weight and meaning compared to those who pray their hearts out for the grace of freedom from torture and war. Its so easy for us to pray for a new phone where we can just watch the latest tv-series out there really are all our prayers judged equally or based on our collective context, cuz when I look back of all the prayers I've prayed to God I don't know if I really meant every word and that alone frightens me.
Our realisation of how greed has always been the magnified quest for more while prayers was just a gateway to lost after versus what to long for. Our desires to be above the block chain has made our prayers hang over our roofs, making holes up there and in as much as we don't change our patterns nothing is ever going to happen.
Sometimes our actions every time we just finish praying doesn't even show that we meant every word that came out of us, sometimes we pray harder for things that don't matter, so insignificant never ever realizing what would be that should take all your attention cuz what would it mean to always not satisfy our own needs.
We never pray for forgiveness for not knowing how much more we value our reckless behaviours covering up our minds all the time of what is truly important......
Break even point
This is the point where you can't decipher why you have unanswered prayers piled up, all of this really gets a print in your heart. So the stuff you can see right now if you go into it, you must identify that God has already provided it for you and he does it in the form you haven't seen before. First you don't recognise it cuz it looks very confusing, you constantly move past it or you never get to reach it.
Check out my wonderful sponsors
There is some power in looking at everything that has happened in your life and be like it's definitely going to get better if I follow this route.
Faith plays an important role, we don't get to stop believing, for each step we take backwards our prayers are delayed. This is for the people who have grown weak face covered by doubts, probably you feel that you have been forgotten and just magically became invisible before God. Especially the absent replies and the broken promises from God, you have to check inward.
What do I do or how to make amends?
'God forgive me', even with this write-up still I'm a suspect, not really exempted in all of this. We only get to talk to God when it feels important to us, what would be the very first question if we haven't spoken to him for weeks? Do we just rush into our demands without even praising him first. This is a time to really change, this is a very deep topic, relate it to yourself personally. How we pray is our choice to make but do we do it the right way.
Are your prayers landing in the "lost and found"?, is it hovering in space or just somewhere waiting to be dragged up or pulled by a stronger force.?"
Thank you for your time. My sister and I wrote this together, It was beautiful to hear her opinion on this.

Why not ask your sister to join here too? :D
It's sad that our prayers are all about asking for more. I have learned an acronym that I have read in one of the devotions that I read when I was younger which is ACTS for Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication. Praise Him above all else, ask for forgiveness and the wisdom not commit those mistakes again, be grateful for all the things you have received and have not and then pray for what you want and need bearing in mind that it is still His will that will be done.
