I would say this is a good and necessary part of correct prayer. It is also quite scary on some level. God is almost never in the business of vending. If we pray for patience for instance, He is most likely to give us something to be patient about rather than simply saying, "Alrighty, you are now patient." At that point things get messy and we end up praying more...hmm.
