God tells us in His Word that He already knows

what we need for the course of each day.

And He tells us He already has all the answers

before we even come to Him and pray.

Now someone might wonder if God already knows

what we need and all the answers to come,

Why do we even pray and why doesn't He just send

all the answers before our prayers have begun ?

But the true answer might be in the truth we don't see

for prayer itself teaches us to rely,

So much less on ourselves and our limited resources

and so much more on the One sitting high.

The very act of prayer is a faith-growing thing

and that faith often takes time to build.

For often in the waiting and the praying we do,

God is teaching us to look for His will.

Prayer will also show us God's ways are much higher

than any prayer that could form on our tongues.

The answers He sends us prove He is all-knowing

and worth seeking till the long answers come.

Through the beseeching God is tenderly teaching

that He is always who He says He will be;

A Father to His children...who believe Him by faith

for the answers we can't even see.

But you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door,

pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret

will reward you openly. And when you pray, do not use vain repetitions as

the heathen do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.
“Therefore do not be like them. For your Father knows the things

you have need of before you ask Him. Matthew 8:6-8 NKJV
