The son of man and son of God, never wanted to be worshipped or praised for what he did. He asked people to thank his heavenly Father and to regularly pray to Him to which he too prayed every day.
For Jesus it was clear we should not stop speaking to our heavenly Father, and we should give our life in His hands, the same way as Jesus did. He too never wanted to do his own will, but chooses to follow the Will of God.
By praying to God we show Him that we are prepared to come closer to Him. Today we should be pleased, because Jesus prepared the way and made it possible that we can come straight to God.

Why pray? because He cares about us. He is for us! He wants a relationship with us. He loves us. (Psalm 119:18, Isaiah 40:29, Jude 2, Psalm 42:5, 1 Peter 5:7, Psalm 118:6, John 3:16)
