Focused Prayer

Have you ever prayed for that "one" thing that you wanted an answer to? You pray for it constantly and it is always on your mind. Currently, I am going through that type of situation where I have that "one" thing I am asking from God. Yesterday, in my quiet time, He hit me right between the eyes with this challenge: What would I pray about if I knew this prayer would be answered tomorrow? Ouch! The truth is, I get so focused on what I want or need that I lose track of truly spending time with God and worshiping and honoring Him. I am so focused on my need or want that it consumes my focus; not God. As I am learning to trust Him more; I am also learning to focus on God and not my wants and needs.
