Hook: Why do Christians often fail to pray as often as they should?

Book: Not only would the coming Holy Spirit counsel the disciples, they would enjoy direct access to the Heavenly Father when they prayed in Jesus’ name. Their sorrow at the Cross would be replaced with the strength of the Spirit that would help them better sense their closeness with the Father. After the Resurrection, the disciples would be able to take heart because they would fully know that He had overcome the world.
