Recently dedicated self to christ, leanring more each day, but do have some confusing contradicting feelings. things i've read, heard, different preachings on tv on sunday mornings regarding prayer.. one question is this. i've heard it said, to pray for yourself, a petition prayer, you are not suppose to ask for something you want, and then say, "if it's your will" may i have this, which i felt was a proper way to ask god. because i always that only what we get is by his will anyway. but this particular preacher says you won't get things if you DOUBT, and by asking "IF" it's your will, you are implying to god you are not sure , and supposedly whatever you ask you shall receive. so that "if" sheds doubt that was you are asking you will receive. so here all this time i've asked that way, thinking i was doing the right thing, and believed i received some of my prayers, to only find out it was all in my head that i thought i received these because I looked for something to make it fit?
