Prayer is either a sheer illusion - or a personal contact between embryonic, incomplete persons (ourselves) and the utterly concrete Person.
Prayer, in the sense of petition, asking for things, is a small part of it;
confession and penitence are its threshold,
adoration its sanctuary, the presence and vision and enjoyment of God its bread and wine.
In it God shows Himself to us.
