Prayer has often been compared to Breathing!
With every Breath we Expel the impure air that would soon cause our death, and in hale again the Fresh Air to which we owe our life.
So we exhale the sins in confession and the needs and the desires of our heart in Prayer.
Drawing in our breath again we Inhale the Fresh Air of the Promises, the Love and the Life of God in Christ.
We do This Through the Holy Spirit, who is the Breath of Life.
