"I am not an expert on prayer. Nobody is. We are all beginners in the life of prayer, and will always be so, because God is so vast and God's gift of prayer has infinite dimensions for exploration. The more prayer territory we explore, the more we find there is to explore. And often, after we develop an 'exploratory method, ' a prayer practice or habit that 'works' for us, it 'breaks, ' doesn't 'take us there' any more, so we have to begin all over again. A lot of people who think they can't pray just haven't found their own language for or mode of prayer. And a lot of people who think their prayer life has dried up need to try another way of praying."
