Helplessness Before God

I'm quoting someone quoting someone else hence I cannot give credit to the author, but I heard this the other day and loved it:

"Prayer is helplessness before God."

In my reading of Ellen White (I'm attempting to read all the Testimonies to the Church), I came across a description of the good shepherd. She said that Jesus pulls the sheep close to his heart to warm it. So of late when I've been praying, I don't just pray. I imagine myself as a lamb pulled up close to Christ's heart. "This is where I want to be Lord! Right here, next to you."
