Comfort
There is comfort in the familiar. There are routines many follow, like having a morning coffee, or brushing teeth before bed. Creatures of habit are we. Knowing what comes next keeps us in balance.
There are times when there are prayers for change. Like when the weather is too hot, wars, illness, or just being dissatisfied with life in general.
There are good changes and bad. Some of the good would be air conditioning, refrigerator, and children growing into responsible adults.
Some of the bad would be the need to have police in our schools, another war to fight, more traffic.
Finding balance between knowing when to pray for change or accepting things as they are is a challenge.
