I don't know why you can't just answer plainly.

Do you mean the "thy will be done" thing or this:

9"So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.

Is it safe to say that you never petition God to change and only for those things that are already in His plan?

That prayer is basically an act of reconciling our desires to God's plan and not an act of asking God for what we piously desire?
