“Do I want to pray or only to think about my human problems? Do I want to pray or simply kneel there contemplating my sorrow? Do I want to direct my prayer towards God or let it direct itself towards me?” ~ Hubert Van Zeller (emailed to me by Rev. John Friedlund)
It’s not hard to turn it around and make it about yourself. I catch myself doing it sometimes. I just try to remember the big picture!
