Recently someone I know was praying for a bathtub. This someone had recently been on a mission trip to Africa where she met orphaned children suffering with AIDS, extremem poverty, extreme hunger and dispare. She had to travel through several countries that were experiencing violent political warfare. All this concludes me to say: you can't pray for a bathtub.
Here is a list of things I don't think you are allowed to pray for:
1. bathtub (obviously)
2. a Michael's coupon
3. bacon
4. a hot tub
5. dijon mustard
6. a monkey, for a pet (you can pray for the health & well being of a monkey though)
7. post-it notes
8. leaves falling off your tree not to end up in your zero landscaping front yard
9. a new desk when you already have 3
10. Zombies... they are evil and scary, why would you pray for them?!?!
NOTE: I don't think this person has prayed for all of these, just some of them.
NOTE II: I hope she never finds my blog.

OK,
The prayer wasn't said within your earshot, out loud, in front of people. That would be awkward. Can you imagine?
"Dear Lord, thank you for the food we are about to eat, bless our friends and family and if it's Your will I WOULD LOVE A TUB!! wierd
I must admit that perhaps I may pray for material things in the privacy of my own mind in my subconscious and then catch myself thinking, oh maybe that's not right! I pray for world peace.
Amen
It's bad mamajama to pray for stuff...please, if God has nothing better to do than to worry your bathtub or whatever...then we're all screwed.
I pray for a pet monkey every day. You can't stop me.
