I've spent the better part of the last four years since I was saved trying to put into words what the presence of the Lord in my prayer life is like, so others would want to experience the same. This is the best I could come up with:
It's excitement and sorrow at the same time, it's peace and agony, it's spiritual love like nothing I've ever experienced either emotionally or physically with another person. Sometimes it's sudden, sometimes it wraps me in the sweetest slow embrace, then rocks my soul till I'm completely spent. Every muscle in my body is tired, but every nerve is still reaching out for more. I laugh, I cry, I mourn, I hurt, I love...I've become a junkie, seeking His presence every chance my life allows me. He comes to me when I open myself to Him, and never pours out more than my heart can hold.
I will never be the same. I will never be the person I was. I can't imagine not having Jesus in my life.
Do you have this with Jesus? Do you need Him like a man lost in the desert needs a drink of water?
