Jesus Teaches How To Pray

«In this manner, therefore, pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.» Matthew 6: 9

What do you like to do most when you are with your best friend? We usually like to talk with our friends about all topics.

Did you know that through prayer we can talk to God at any time and about anything? Isn’t that wonderful? If we are sad or happy, we can tell Him. If we are thankful or in need of something, we can talk to him too.

The disciples were worried because they thought they did not know how to pray. Jesus then taught them a prayer to serve as an example of all the things we can talk to Him about.

In this prayer, we call God our Father and worship Him. Then we ask Him to come soon. We ask for daily bread, but not only the bread that we eat, but also for He Himself who is the Bread that feeds our heart. We ask Him to give us the strength not to sin. And we end by saying that all power and glory are His.

Let’s practice!

Repeat the prayer as many times as necessary until you can recite by yourself the prayer Jesus taught.
