But what about God “who shows no partiality”? Does God consider such differences? I have no idea how or if God weighs or judges my prayers, but I believe the intention behind my prayer requests has some bearing on how I relate to God. Prayer without nuance on my part numbs my relationship with God. If I cry out in unanimity for everyone, my compassion is neutralized. Even “Thy will be done” must be said with passion.
