Prayer is only relevant to our search for God's designs for us and the world. Other than that, prayer is by nature irrelevant. It is not relevant in terms of our social or personal goals. God simply cannot be manipulated to follow our own designs for Him.
It is not how much you give that matters. But how much love accompany that giving. Millions maybe given; but without love, what merit does that giving brings? Give then with love, and let that love determine how much you need to give.
Only the heart that is pure and free of attachment to the glories and materials of this world can have the eyes to see beyond the trappings of this world. Grace clears the eyes of the person whose heart is prepared to receive grace. That is why even the most intelligent persons will not see the errors of their ways, having been blinded by pride and selfishness. Only the humble heart sees what no one else can see.
