With the advancement of science and technology, it is today possible to speak or communicate with people on the other side of the globe on the telephone, the Internet, or on video phones. No matter how far apart two individuals may be physically, only the conversations between the two will allow ones heart to be expressed to the other and permit one to fathom the others heart.
If we had a pathway through which we can confess our heart to God the Almighty, it would be prayer. Through it we can tell Him a variety of problems we face in life and the desires of our heart, and receive His guidance onto the most beautiful and the best path. Prayer is a privilege given to all those who believe in God and it cannot be compared to anything in this world.

"But certainly God has heard; He has given heed to the voice of my prayer" (Psalm 66:19).
