Danny Simms asks
Do You Really Believe Prayer Works?. Here is the way that I responded:

Sadly, I must admit that most of my prayers come from my head and are filled with fear, insecurity and all sorts of fleshly stuff.
Occasionally I connect with that deep place in me where I genuinely commune with God - these times are so revealing.
Yesterday was such a time. I prayed asking God to forgive me for doubting Him during this real difficult season in my life. He shocked me when He responded that I didn't need to be forgiven. He said that He understood. In that moment I experienced grace and comfort at such a very deep level.
Connecting with God at a heart level brings us into a place of communion that head praying cannot.
