Ralph's note: this is perhaps the best definition of what prayer should be 
that I have ever heard. It is nearly identical to Alistaire Petrie's 
definition of, and motivation for prayer.

Quote: 
Prayer is a relationship. It is a relationship of a Father and His children; 
of two friends; of a King and His servants; of a Teacher and His students, 
and of a Bride Groom and His bride. Prayer was never intended to 
become something we only do when we are in need or if we desire 
something. It is a continual, on going conversation between 
God, the creator of all that is, and His creation.
