Prayer life

Why should we as Christians have a Prayer life? a lot of people ask that Question. Well what my answer is to that is what i have heard other people tell me and i be leave it. is that it brings u closer to god and allows to the speak to him its the only communication to him. and it talks about it in the bible.... Mark 11:25 so you need to have a good prayer life for those reasons. So get up off the couch and go read the 66 book about Jesus!!
