Prayer, the Foundation of Relationships

The foundation of all relationships is communication, whether with our spouse, children, teacher, employer, neighbor, and especially our God. Prayer comes in a number of forms, whether for Worship, Praise, Thanksgiving, Petition, Seeking Forgiveness and strength, or Intercession; do note, praying for others will strengthen those relationships.
