“God wants us to become like the angels….We humans are very material and over-anxious to please, which is why we pray to God selfishly. We ask Him to arrange our issues, that everything will go well with our business, our affairs, our health, our children. However, we pray in a human and selfish way. Doxology is selfless prayer…”
(Elder St Porphyrios quoted in Mystagogy Resource)
