The Lord’s Prayer

Welcome back!
Do you say the Lord’s Prayer at all? Do you go to church and say it there because everyone does it? When, if ever, do you say it? I admit that I do not say the Lord’s Prayer at all often though I should. Jesus was teaching us how to pray when He said those words. He was teaching us the meaning of prayer and how important it truly is for us to do it daily. How awesome our Lord is to give us the way to get to Him so easily. All you have to do is call on Him and He is right there for you. How can it get any better than that?
Today, I was looking at a couple of funny videos when I noticed in the list one called The Prayer! Anything that talks about prayer gets my attention because of how easy it is to do that. When I watched it, immediately I thought about how we say the Lord’s Prayer and what it means to us. Usually, the person saying it is simply reciting what they learned as a child, right? I know that I have done just that myself. Most people who go to church, when the prayer is recited, they do not think about what it actually means. They simply say it. Do you get much out of doing that? Not really.
So, what does the Lord’s Prayer actually mean? I could give you a lesson right here about it and I might just do that in another post but I wanted you to see what I did in the video that someone put up about the Lord’s Prayer. Click on the link, watch it and come back here. When you finish the video, it is a bit long, think about what you just saw. Take the time to break the prayer down and think about each part of it. What does it mean? What does it mean for you? Does God actually answer you when you pray like that?
I am curious as to what this means to you. If you will, please comment on this video and what you have learned that you did not know before. I just want to see if you saw what I did. Thank you and God bless you richly.
