Why is true prayer about more than just words?
-
True prayer is about more than just words. True prayer is everything from our own heart, with feeling. Like, it moves you. Best feeling in the world is to talk to God. He already knows everything, including what is going on in my heart, but to verbalize it, speak it out to Him… again, best feeling in the world.

True prayer is more than just words because there are times when we have no words. There are times when we are so full of joy or of sorrow that we can only just be in His presence and not speak. It also involves listening as the Lord speaks to our hearts with a still small voice. I like what Pastor Banks had to say about posture and how our postures reflect what is in our hearts during our prayers with God.

A true relationship with The Lord!

Prayer is a sort of bonding exercise that we must experience over and over again if we intend on getting closer to God.

Prayer is an investment into a relationship; It goes beyond the exchange of words and includes time spent with one another. My relationship with my wife is more than the words we exchange with one another – It includes the time we spend in one another’s company. The ability to just be in one another’s presence, and to find security and comfort with one another, is similar to prayer with the Lord. We come to Him, spend time in His presence, because we find peace in the relationship. We come back to prayer because it refreshes our soul, just like time with my wife at the end of the day.
