Two Problems

When I look at prayer I see two problems.

The first is why doesn't God act the way we want Him to act? We ask for one thing and He gives us something else. If we could look back over our lives we would see that what we wanted was not the best but God gives us the best.

The second problem comes to me when I read scripture. Why don't I act the way God wants me to act? The difficulty is that I want to do it my way, even my obedience is in my strength while God says to me, "Just let me do it for you."
