Prayer
Honest conversation with God.
Prayer includes adoration, confession, thanksgiving, request, lament and silence. Jesus modelled it and taught it in the Lord's Prayer.
Unanswered prayer is a genuine difficulty Scripture does not hide from; the Psalms are full of it.
Key verses
Pray without ceasing.
