Lent day 4: Prayer

Does anyone ever find that God tells them not to pray for something? There's one thing at the moment that I am desperate for, above anything else. It's something that will take place over time. But I find God is almost telling me not to pray for it, or at least not to pray for the 'happy ending', but instead to pray for the situation one day at a time. Or at least, it was one day at a time. Now it's one morning or afternoon or evening at a time.

Anyone with any similar experiences?

p.s. Yes, I do know the line that when we talk to God it's called prayer, and when God talks to us it's called schizophrenia.
