Once, my preacher was preaching on Easter, and he said the one on the cross who was crying out to Jesus just to be saved was praying a parachute prayer. You know, parachutes are handy to pull out when you're falling, and that's the problem with some of us. We only pray when we need something. And that's a bad habit. it's also a hard habit to break. Something that has helped me lots in dealing with this issue is writing my prayers. Aibileen from The Help was smart. If you write down your prayers daily, it will keep you from only asking God for things you need at the moment. How I teach my little sister to read, I tell her to tell God hi, then tell Him about her day, how she wants her next one to be like. It really works. You should try it.
