Prayer is not a stratagem for occasional use, a refuge to resort to now and then. It is rather like an established residence for the innermost self. All things have a home: the bird has a nest, the fox has a hole, the bee has a hive. A soul without prayer is a soul without a home.
Abraham Joshua Heschel
Prayer is the only medium that connects us to our Creator and Maker. If we set aside prayer, we are setting aside our Maker, thereby setting aside his breathe inside of us. As a result, we are confused souls lost in the wilderness of our daily existence.
