Prayer is not for the benefit of God. God is omniscient, so He already knows whats on your mind, and whats on your heart. But one of the purposes of prayer is for Him to expose to YOU what is really in your heart, and to help you be aware of and often adjust your attitude. The longer time you spend pouring your heart out to God, the more He reveals to you what is there. Whenever you find yourself avoiding a heart to heart with God, that's an indicator that your heart is not in the right place and that you're refusing to see what God already knows about you.
Matthew 12:34b "For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks."
