Most Christians do not give God a chance to show His delight in granting His children’s petitions; for their requests are so vague and indefinite. If this is so, it is not surprising that prayer is so often a mere form – man almost mechanical repetition, day by day, of certain phrases; a few minutes’ “exercise” morning and evening.
