When I first typed the question on the page I thought to myself, “How unfair to ask people to list a personal desire. It may be self centered or selfish to appear to only think of ones self, especially in times like these”. But notice I used the word “appear”. The truth is, we cannot attain anything – until we know what the thing IS we want to attain.
It might seem trivial to some to hear others ask for an automobile. However, what makes it trivial to “some” is because they already have a decent, dependable mode of transportation. They have forgotten how frustrating it is for some to be without something they now take for granted.
Also, I’m sure we all have heard about the New Year’s resolution. I’ve made several over the years. Some say we should not make them if we do not intend to keep them. They say our failing to keep last years resolution should be the indictment that we should not make another we may not keep.
To all that type of thinking I say – hogwash! It is precisely the fact that we keep praying, keep asking and keep making resolutions that reveal something unique about us. It is the fact that we keep trying to be better, And the more we try, and maybe fail – the more we seek other ways to succeed.
Therefore we (on this site) do not judge the request or resolution – we merely PRAY for you to receive.
