I used to pray for strength, courage, and wisdom.

I learned to stop praying for wisdom because you only gain wisdom when faced with unforeseen challenges where all kinds of shit can go wrong and you learn a lot. These days, I only pray for strength and courage and things have been much smoother. lol

I’m generally with you on this sentiment.

However, I believe there is something in the human psyche that makes it real for all intents on purposes. Prayers for others are proven useless. But prayers for strength may as well work as affirmations.
