Many of us treat prayer like playing the slot machines - we put in our petitions, hope for the best, and on the rare occasion that we strike it lucky, we say thank you.
What Father wants his children to come only when they're after something? God's design for prayer is to deepen our relationship with him. A two way conversation as you would have with any friend.
"Relational prayer is the centre of all true prayer. The power of petitionary prayer depends on the centrality of relational prayer." Dr Larry Crabb
"Prayer is adialogue not a monologue." Yonggi Cho
