What is truth?

What I feel about prayer, and what I know of myself is that I do not work well without it. When I look to the Lord in the beginning of the day, the day goes better. When I don't, arguements erupt to my surprise. We just can't live in a world full of stress and heartache, and sin without Him. The days are sometimes so long and so lonely. People don't call. Sometimes loved ones aren't able to visit. It almost seems I depend too much on family or friends, when I need to depend totally on Christ. Because people are flawed, they struggle with their own humanity, and sin.
When I pray, I feel peace, I let my inhibitions go, tears flow, I get the true words out that I need to express, (and true words can't always be expressed, except to God)I sense His presence about me, and my burdens are supernaturally lifted from my heavy heart. I pray to throw myself at His beautiful feet, to remain grounded, to know that this isn't all there is to life. I pray for vindication for the those that receive no justice in this life. For the littlest among us who suffer. I pray that God would be among us again. That he would move His army to do battle.
Sometimes just to let my pain wash over Him. To be held like a little child in His arms, to lay at His feet, to be in His presence if even for a second. To let Him guide my heart for the day.
There are so many reasons why I need prayer, why prayer is needed. Why we need to remain in union with Him. So much can wedge itself between us and Christ. The world, the material things in it, the temptations that want to corrupt us, not just fleshly things, but the ideas and the ways of it. We cannot let ourselves rationalize and accept the ideas that pose as "the new morality". Morality is what is in God's Word. Nothing has changed with God's standards. We change, our hearts have changed, but what God spoke and had spirit-filled men write thousands of years ago is still "truth".
People say there are no absolutes. That we cannot fully know what the truth of anything is. That all people must be created equal. But God has assigned men, women and children their respective roles. We cannot pervert those roles simply because others do not understand, nor want to accept the truth.
I really feel for the homosexual population. Nor do I think their lives are easy. I am not the one who thinks anything. God wrote what He wrote. He is the standard of our lives. Not the left, not democrats, humanists, republicans, liberals, Russians, Americans, Jews, or any other ethinicity. It is what Christ has paid for with His life. We live for the Cross. We are deeply grateful with a gratitude that cannot even merit what He has done. No, I feel for suffering humanity, as we must pray for the struggles of everyone. But I will not be swayed, simply because something is "politically correct." No, I am a Christ follower. Even the word Christian has gotten to mean everyone who simply wants to attend some church.
So for me, prayer is like breathing. Like eating. Jesus Christ said,"Man must not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4)
