This made me think. In the bible i was reading yesterday boutgiving in public, and big long repetitive prayers. I have done this myself, and see others doing it all the time. It is a trap, as you say... what were saying is god i dont believe you heard me, i am gonna repeat myself and go on and on, becauase i have no faith. I know god loves us, but even the most patient loving parents must get tired of winging children! I think sumtimes we just got to get on with it, and live life... even if things arnt as we want em to be...cheers.
