Praying till we forget...

A few weeks ago, I went hiking with the kids, and when we were done, we were walking back to the car and Odin says to me, Aunt Mary, I was praying sooooooo hard at church on Sunday. I was just crying and speaking in tongues, he's like, did you see me Aunt Mary!?!?!?!? I was like, I DID see you, and you were praying very good!!!. 
.
He's like, yeah I was...then he kinda like GASPS and he says, I was praying soooooooo hard, I FORGOT to even ask God for a pet bird and a Tesla!!! 
It was  SOOOOOOOOO FUNNY annnnnd CUUUUUTE!!!! 
.
Buuuuuuuuuuut it got me to thinking, no my nephew is not some kind of super spiritual kid, buuuuuuuuuut still, I can't help but think that is the very essence of what prayer is supposed to be...
.
To pray till our own desires are forgotten, 
because our own spirit is lost
 in God's desires!!!
" And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God." (Romans 8:27)
