If we pray to Our Lord to have mercy on “anyone else than us”, doesn’t that mean we deny that He already is having mercy on them and they just haven’t opened themselves up to it?
Doesn’t it mean that we deny that everything which happens is according to His plan?
Doesn’t it mean we disagree with God?
Doesn’t it mean we disrespect others’ will?
I’ve been trying to find a prayer that would be perfect for others, and I just can’t.
Every time I pray for something, for those who suffer, etc. I think to myself that I really can’t know if my prayer is beneficial, and I’m afraid that it’s somehow aggressive and contrary to God’s plan.
How can I know what’s best for others?
The only thing I can think about is praying for those that requested it, and maybe for those who “need my prayers”, but it seems to be too vague.
Other than that everything else seems pointless or flawed in a way. Shouldn’t I therefore only pray for myself and those who requested it?
