praying for something to change

Will we open ourselves to the radical love of God that changes the world? If we pray for God to change other situations such as health, employment, emotional struggles, addictions, relationships, world conflicts, then we must expect that God has the power to bring about change. But our prayers for any change is hollow unless we pray for and are open to the radical change of repentance that Jesus Christ preaches with the kingdom of God being at hand. And that change means everything is on the table about our lives. God may not change it all, but we put it all on the table without reservation with the willingness to accept what God does choose to change about us. That is the journey of a disciple.
