Think Before You Pray

Most of the songs that we sing in church are prayers. A song we sang in church yesterday was no different. In the first verse the prayer was for righteousness and in the second verse the prayer was for holiness. These are good things to pray for, but the third verse had this prayer in it, it said: brokenness is what I pray for”. It was then that I stopped singing, and I asked myself why anyone would ever pray for brokenness. Do you understand what you are asking for?
