God wants us to need Him

Sometimes I feel so needy in my prayers, and I feel guilty for telling God about all of my desires. But as I think about it, I am His son -- and I of course would want my own son to tell me his wants.

A friend was telling me this weekend that God designed us with faults, and that God wants us to need Him. After all, if we did not have faults, needs and things in our lives that we wanted to change, we would not be as reliant on God. And that's what He wants -- us to need Him and rely on Him.
