Back in the day we wrote out our Christmas list with a crayon and a piece of paper. Then the list was placed in an envelope and put in an mailbox to be sent off to Santa. These days children don’t have to go to all the trouble or put in any work to send their list. All they need to do is wrote the list on an electronic device and send it off to Santa’s email. Where is the fun in that? Some have the say idea about prayer. they think all they need to do is send off an email to God and they will get what they want. The Bible does say God will answer our prayers if we just ask. He does, but in His own way and time and many times not as we expect.
