About this sermon
The connecting power of prayer. QUESTION FOR THE COMMENTS: How do you best connect with God in prayer? HERE'S HOW: Today, pray in a new way. Don’t feel the need to try to make it “work”, but rather allow the prayer to work on you and your connection to God. - Slow down. - Slowly pray the Lord’s Prayer. - Meditate on each phrase and allow it’s meaning the well up within you. - Make this a practice in your daily life. The Lord's Prayer (paraphrased by Dallas Willard) Dear Father always near us, may your name be treasured and loved, may your rule be completed in us- may your will be done here on earth in just the way it is done in heaven. Give us today the things we need today, and forgive us our sins and impositions on you as we are forgiving all who in any way offend us. Please don’t put us through trials, but deliver us from everything bad. Because you are the one in charge, and you have all the power, and the glory too is all yours-forever- which is just the way we want it!
