The Way God Works...
Someone sent me a golden nugget of a simple description of how the concept God works from an inner-city point of view:
“When I was a kid, I used to pray every night for a new bike. After a couple of years, I realized that God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked Him to forgive me.” Anonymous
*******
You might note that either type of prayer supports the religious institutions that have grown up around the concept of "God."

Nothing Changes...
A friend wrote and said, "When you change nothing, nothing changes."
My response:
Nothing changes, nothing changes, nothing changes - this is the foundation of having enough of what I don't want.
So, becoming aware that nothing changes, and that our "choices" are habitual, is a blessing and the beginning of change....
