Prayer’s Real Purpose

prayers-real-purpose
I have discovered that prayer’s real purpose is to put God at the center of our attention, and forget ourselves and the impression we are making on others.
–Rosalind Rinker

I imagine we have all prayed at some point with ourselves as the central focus.
I imagine we have all prayed at some point to try to impress others.

As we pray today…
May we each pray with God at the center… not ourselves.
May we each pray to please God, our Audience of One… not to try to please someone else.
