What to ask when you pray

What to say when you pray.Should we ask for material possessions,specific solution to an immediate problem or a broad based.I found out that instead of praying for specific resolution a more broader prayer is really great.Instead of asking for possessions, solution to problems and progress/ promotions 3 Ps ,let us examine the 3Ps which are Purity, Peace and Purpose.

Purity: Let us pray for the purity of thoughts, feelings, emotions,actions,5 Senses,

Peace: At the end of everything we look for the peace. Be it peace in relationships, with ourselves, peace with money, neighbors, government authorities,health, Bosses etc.Peace of mind gives us happiness and joy.

Purpose: We are here to serve. The question which keeps coming to the mind is what is purpose of my life on this earth,why am I born and what should I do.Am I on the right path and correct direction.The answer to this question really haunts the person at some point of time.

God is omnipresent,omnipotent and omni listener and an excellent account keeper.Let us trust in HIS powers and surrender completely to HIM.

He knows what is best for us and we will be given the same at the right time and in the right quantity, nothing less and nothing more.

For the persons who think that their prayers have not been answered, the best way to understand this is that it was not granted as it was not good for the bigger cause/purpose.Love.
