My husband even will rub my shoulders and scratch my back. Then when I'm nice and relaxed and about to say how much I appreciate him and what he's done...he lays down and says "my turn!". Why can't he just do something nice for me and not ask for anything in return? (He does do that sometimes by the way.)
But anyway...back to the "What's in it for me?" mentality I'm speaking of. . .
I was thinking about it the other night and then it hit me...in the heart instead of my thoughts this time. God wants the same thing from us. How many times do we go to 'pray' and go with a list of wants? We are always asking something of God. I believe He desires us to just spend some quality time with Him and praising Him and thanking Him and just talking with Him...not asking 'what's in it for me?'....'what will I get out of this?'...'here's what I need Lord.'
Think about it....I know it's changing the way I pray.
