Prayer

Prayer is as natural an expression of faith as breathing is of life; and to say that a man lilves a life of faith and lives a prayerless life is every whit as inconsistent and incredible as to say that a man lives without breathing. A prayerless life is so far from being a holy life that it is a profane life. He who lives so lives like a heathen who does not call on God’s name. He who lives a prayerless life lives without God in the world.

-- Jonathan Edwards
Taken from “Hypocrites Deficient in the Duty of Prayer”
