Can I encourage you? It's my way of application. Can I encourage you? Be honest in prayer. Listen, God doesn't have feelings. You're not going to hurt. You ever thought about that? God, the classical teaching about God tells us that God is without bodies, parts, or passions. He doesn't have feelings like you do. If I say the wrong thing to you, your feelings get hurt. God's feelings can't get hurt. Now, again, that's not a license for you to be disrespectful and irreverent in prayer, but it is a license for you to be honest in prayer. God can take it. And besides, who better to speak to anyway? God is just, so talk to him and talk honestly to him.
