Just something I found and thought I'd share. Unfortunately, I have probably been guilty of praying this way myself at times.....
As my five year old son and I were headed to McDonald's one day, we passed a car accident. Usually when we see something terrible like that, we say a prayer for those who might be hurt, so I pointed and said to my son, "We should pray."
From the back seat I heard his earnest request: "Please, God, don't let those cars block the entrance to McDonald's."
There is nothing like the honesty of a child's heart!

Sounds like what one of mine would say......very funny
Very cute! I know that sometimes my prayers are so self-serving. It's easy to get in a rut of only asking God for things that benefit us or what we want to go our way.
