Is there anything in the Lord's Prayer that we can change?

HD you jumped into this without reading the background. I said if you are sure of your resurrection and salvation do you pray for it, and FK said he does. To which I say, why, if you are sure of it, and knowing that your prayers will not change what God has in store for you (which is contrary to what the Bile says). No one was taling about changing the prayers...

I must be missing something. Going back through the last five posts my post seems consistent in thought but I must admit that I haven’t been following this conversation.

That's not quite correct. In supplement to my recent answer to this, I would note that I chose my words very carefully, as any good blood-sucking lawyer would do. :) I said that we all pray "about" things we are sure of. I didn't say we pray "for" those things. My point was to illustrate that prayer is much more than supplication.
