<p>Sincerely,<br />
Lost in Translation</p></blockquote>
<p>We need to learn how to pray in accordance with God&#8217;s will, BUT there is one exception to this (I&#8217;ll get to that last).  Jesus&#8217; disciples asked him to teach them how to pray (Lk 11:1).  Jesus didn&#8217;t correct them.  Instead, He taught them (Lk 11:2-4).  There is definitely a right way and a wrong way to pray.</p>
<p>However, God does intercede for us in our prayers.  Specifically, the Holy spirit intercedes for us (Rom 8:26).  There are times when we don&#8217;t know what to ask for, how to ask for it, or even whether we should ask for it!  Sometimes we are in such suffering and agony that words can&#8217;t express the struggles and agony we are in.  In such cases, God says that our lack of eloquence won&#8217;t hinder our prayers.  The Holy Spirit who can examine our hearts makes sure the Father is aware of our deepest yearnings and concerns.  Angels never translate our prayers, but God&#8217;s own Spirit cares enough to listen and help.</p>
