I have come to see prayer as a privilege, not a duty. Like all
good things, prayer requires some discipline. Yet I believe that life
with God should seem more like friendship than duty. Prayer includes
moments of ecstasy and also dullness, mindless distraction and acute
concentration, flashes of joy and bouts of irritation. In other words,
prayer has features in common with all relationships that matter.
-Philip Yancey in PRAYER Does It Make Any Difference
