Greetings, Precious Family:

May the Peace of the Lord be with you.

When I began thinking about how to pray, my heart always goes back to The Lord’s Prayer. It is the ultimate road map that covers the perfect format of a prayer.

The importance of starting each prayer by giving God glory and honor is the most important aspect. Jesus taught his disciples to never ask God for anything until they have given glory, honor, and worship to God.

Scripture of the Day

Matthew 6:7-13
New International Version

7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9 “This, then, is how you should pray:

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a]
but deliver us from the evil one.[b]’

Let Us Pray

Spirit of the Living God, we bless your holy name. We place nothing before you and know that you are our source and strength. Guide us in your perfect will so that we may be in tune with heaven. In Jesus’ name.

And we let it be…And so it is…

Amen, Amen, and Amen
