If we can live godly or ungodly and God is not changed, then what is the purpose of prayer? I thought prayer, was in part, to somehow implore God to change his mind about our condition and improve it according to our desires. (Not that God answers our prayers this way...but it got me thinking!) If he can not be changed, why then pray at all?

Thank you for your column, I look forward to it and have grown in my faith through your teaching.

Sincerely,

Patti
