Prayer, then, is cooperating with God to bring about His plan, not trying to bend Him to our will. As we abandon our own desires in submission to the One who knows our circumstances far better than we ever could and who “knows what you need before you ask” (Matthew 6:8), our prayers reach their highest level.
Maombi kwa hivyo kushirikiana na Mungu ili alete mpango wake, sio kujaribu kumkunja aingie kwa mapenzi yetu. Tunapoacha haja zetu kwa kujitoa kwa Yeye ajuaye hali zetu sana kutuliko na Yeye “chenye unahitaji kabla uulize” (Mathayo 6:8), maombi yetu yanafikia upeo wake.
