For
most, the principle purpose [of prayer] is for getting God to do something we
want him to do, or for him to give us something we want. That is not entirely
what God has in mind. In his mind, prayer was for the purpose of nurturing
intimacy with him. Building a deep and passionate relationship. Out of that
relationship would come all the trimmings we could possibly desire because
that’s what lovers do. They give gifts to the beloved.
