I get confused whether to say those exact words or just use it as inspiration.

Either way, but you also have to meditate on the meaning while praying sincerely. Otherwise, it’s just “Bible Magic”.

May as well just light some candles, wave some incense, and rattle some beads...

:roll:

I believe what is being conveyed is structure.

It starts off with acknowledging God before asking for anything.

I'm certainly capable of it, but I'd prefer to not waste the time and effort. :|

An interesting thing about Quakers...when we pray we listen rather than talk.

So god cares about us knowing and loudly praying quotes from the bible, but he doesn't care about victims of school shootings, small children with cancer, or my puppy getting run over and killed right outside my house at the start of summer vacation when I was 12?

Okay.

Ask not what god can do for you, ask only what can you do for god.

He's a little bit selfish and entitled after-all. :wink:
