When i pray, i never pray for myself, always for others, or else i hold a silly, naive, or deadly serious dialogue with what is deepest inside me, which for the sake of convenience i call god. praying to god for something for yourself strikes me as being too childish for words. to pray for another's well-being is something i find childish as well; one should only pray that another should have enough strength to shoulder his burden. if you do that, you lend him some of your own strength.
Silly Should Have Sake
Leaders trust their guts. "intuition" is one of those good words that has gotten a bad rap. for some reason, intuition has become a "soft" notion. garbage! intuition is the new physics. it's an einsteinian, seven-sense, practical way to make tough decisions. bottom line, circa 2001 to 2010: the crazier the times are, the more important it is for leaders to develop and to trust their intuition.

If your life is in disarray and you feel uncomfortable and unworthy to pray because you are not clean, don't worry. he already knows about all of that. he is waiting for you to kneel in humility and take the first few steps. pray for strength. pray for others to be led to support you and guide you and lift you. pray that the love of the savior will pour into your heart. pray that the miracle of the atonement will bring forgiveness because you are willing to change. i know that those prayers will be answered, for god loves you. his son gave his life for you. i know they will help you.

I think about my parents all the time, especially on sunday when i'm at mass. my mother always said, 'we do not pray to win elections. we pray for people's health, we pray that god's will be done, we pray that we do our best. but we do not pray to win elections.'

Here is the great secret of success. work with all your might; but trust not in the least in your work. pray with all your might for the blessing of god; but work, at the same time, with all diligence, with all patience, with all perseverance. pray then, and work. work and pray. and still again pray, and then work. and so on all the days of your life. the result will surely be, abundant blessing. whether you see much fruit or little fruit, such kind of service will be blessed.
