It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle...

"That's why tough guys seldom know much of God; people who are confident of their own abilities, confident in what they've done what they've achieved, what they've built, what they've made, what they've earned. It is easier for a camel to go through an eye of a needle than for such individuals to enter the kingdom of heaven. Why? because before you discover God's power and strength in all of its fullness you're brought face to face with your own total abject poverty and weakness. " -Alistair Begg

"The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God." Mark 10:26,27

Hence why we pray. It is the only communication we have to reach the Almighty One within this fallen world.
