Is not prayer the intensely personal struggle within each disciple, and among us collectively, to resist the despair and distractions that cause us to practice unbelief, to abandon or avoid the way of Jesus?
~ Ched Myers
What is unbelief but the despair, dictated by the dominant powers, that nothing can really change?
To pray is to learn to believe in in a transformation of self and world, which seems, empirically, impossible.
