Evan, you have no idea what prayer is then. Prayer, for me, is asking God what His plan is and if He will give me guidance in how best to carry it out. There's a lot going on in this world that has nothing to do with God's omnipotent plan and is just human beings screwing things up. I want to be one of the human beings who is in line with God's plan, but I need to know what that plan is and prayer is where I listen to Him to find out.
