Lord, Teach Us To Pray

Prayer is the basic form of our communion with God. It is wonderful to know that he desires that communion. He longs for us to desire to be in His presence. The great, holy, and awesome Creator of the universe desires to be close to us. Why, then, is prayer often so much of a challenge for believers? The disciples in effect, asked Jesus that very question when they asked Him to teach them to pray. His answer to them should be extremely helpful to us as we enter into God's presence.
