I don't believe asking for prayer for yourself is selfish. It is a step of faith just like when you ask it for someone else. Plus, I find that there's an aspect of praying for people that helps me, too. When I read such stories, I tend to take it all inside and feel for the person quite strongly. When I pray, it relieves a good portion of that in me to have discussed it with Abba but also strengthens the bond. I'll be discussing all these posts.
