Prayer isn’t a performance, it’s a deeply personal and intimate action. It’s where you can be the most honest, true, raw version of yourself without any worry of being judged unfairly or cast aside. If you only give God a surface level effort, you’ll never get anything more than a surface level relationship. The things God can give you and bless you with through a proper relationship with Him far outweigh anything the world or other people could even hope to give you - their praise will seem pointless, the worldly rewards will seem completely futile. There can be many things to pray for, the most important thing is remembering who you’re praying to. (taken from "Hello?
