In related news, I realized that — IN ME — not telling God what I want was an act of spiritual pride. I confessed it in my last confessions before Xmas.

One aspect of it was by not asking I cut myself of from all that I could learn if God says no.

So now I ask and learn.

Thank You Mad Dawg there is wisdom in your post. My God supplies all my needs. We do have needs.

Maybe my anal points are more about need priorities? Should wants and needs for material things be less and less as we grow in grace?
