So Iain, it sounds like you're saying that "pray without ceasing" is the same as tapping into something fresh and ancient that God put there for us. That works for me; prayer is simply focusing your awareness on what God is doing and getting into the flow. It's always there.
Yes, that is a worthy interpretation and it adds depth to the parable, expanding it beyond the personal. That is a good thing.
