I read a great illustration today: "Go out in a boat and toss a line to shore. After the line is made fast to shore, pull on the line. When you do this, you don't pull the shore to the boat. Instead, you pull the boat to shore. That's the way it works with prayer. When you pull on the rope connecting you to God, you don't pull God to your way of doing things. Instead, you pull yourself to God's way of doing things. You align yourself with God's program for your life. Prayer doesn't change God. Prayer changes you!"
