Alan says: “Prayer is not primarily a means of getting things done. It should never be a pragmatic exercise. Prayer is our means of meeting God – of entering into deep intimacy with Him. The life of prayer is born out of an overwhelming hunger for God – a desire that says, ‘I must have God or I die.’ “

I simply cannot put that any better or add anything to it. God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him said Piper. It is the very shallowness of our desire for God that limits our spirituality. Some say Christianity is a crutch. I say, we don’t lean on God enough!
