Prayer is communication with God that builds a relationship through daily speaking and showing belief. It helps one feel comfortable knowing God will be there during times of need. Psalm 23 expresses how God guides and provides for his followers, even during difficult times. He restores the soul, shows the right path, and brings comfort. God prepares a table and overflows one's cup, ensuring goodness and love will always be present. Prayer strengthens this bond and protection of God forever.
