Has anyone noticed a change in the prayer language lately?

This could be coming from the Ensign, from a new World Leadership Training emphasis, maybe, but I doubt it, a new CES emphasis.

I've been hearing more prayers having to do with care, with peace, with happiness--lots of warm fuzzies. Maybe it's just me, just my family members (the only Mormon prayers I hear are at dinner). Maybe it's something in my ward or stake. I don't know.

Just curious if others have detected a change in the language used in prayers lately, maybe some part of the LDS church response to recent defeats--a subtle expression of the response.

Have others noticed, historically, similar changes in the past where the language of prayer was infected with the then current concerns of church leadership?
