Prayer to the living God focuses on Him and our need:

“GIVE EAR to my words, O Lord,

Consider my groaning.

2 Heed the sound of my cry for help, my King and my God,

For to You I pray.

3 In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice;

In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch.”

(NASB) Psalm 5:11-12

“But let all who take refuge in You be glad,

Let them ever sing for joy;

And may You shelter them,

That those who love Your name may exult in You.

12 For it is You who blesses the righteous man, O Lord,

You surround him with favor as with a shield.”
