The Christian is not to be characterized as someone who takes, but as someone who gives. After all, “God so loved the world that He gave His One and only Son, that whoever believes in Him might not perish, but have eternal life!” Giving to help others is what makes us like God.

So then, prayer is not always about getting what you want, it’s about God giving you what you need. Prayer is not always about getting out of the difficulties surrounding you, but is about bringing God into your difficulties – it’s about God giving you His peace.
