Praying for the Little Things

Praying for the little things, like daily bread or a parking spot, is encouraged as it aligns with asking for necessities. However, there's a distinction between praying for small things and lacking aspirations. Stopping at requesting trivial items like a little house may indicate a lack of ambition rather than focusing solely on aspirational goals.
