On the Train Ride Home

Still I was praying on the train ride home… If I can’t get the things I want… Just give me what I need

Recently, I came across a new album by The Paper Kites. This song particularly resonated with me, as ‘on the train ride home’ is pretty much the unfinished story of my life. Plus it’s about prayer, that constant dialogue we can have with the Giver of Life. They say, ‘I want doesn’t get’, yet God in his wisdom provides for our every need. We can’t get, but in his grace he gives. Our Heavenly Father knows what we need before we ask him (see Matthew 6:5-15) and he loves to hear from us!
