Matthew 6:5-8
5 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
[King James version]
Quiet time spent alone with God in prayer is the best part of the day… and what an assurance to know that He already knows what we need, before we even ask.
Sometimes I’ve wondered why God didn’t answer my prayer… But later I realized it was just what I thought I wanted, but not what I needed. Thankfully, God knows what we need.
