For the same reason that people eat often. The soul gets hungry.

The Torah and Sages instituted plenty of prayer (see Talmud, Berakhot 26a) because we have a lot to thank God for; and everyone has plenty of needs. In speaking/praying to God concerning our gratitude and our needs and imperfections, we acknowledge that He is the source and ultimate address to turn to concerning these things.
