This Week's Lesson:  Our Father

Scripture related to the lesson: Luke 1-2

:1  And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.

:2  And he said unto them, When ye pray, say, our Father which art in heaven

 (Ofcourse you know the Lord's prayer) But, look at what Jesus did to answer his question. Jesus gave us an example of what our attitude should be when we pray. He didn't put words in our mouth, he just gave an example; which is an unselfish prayer. You will note, that, through out the example Jesus gave, never once did he use the word "I," the prayer included "us" which is telling us we should never pray a prayer using I. We should not think only of ourself; but, remember that, we all have a need of Jesus, his love and protection, and, to have our sins forgiven, for we all sin, even if we are not aware of it. An unselfish prayer keeps us in the right frame of mind, we don't get the "big Head" thinking we are more important than someone else. It make us know we are all the same in God's sight. And, that God loves us all the same. God loves those who obey His commandments and those who disobey His Commandments. Why? because God gave us that choice. We can be obedient and obey, or be disobedient and ignore his commandments. He gave us that choice and told us what will happen in the end of this life to both choices. When you pray, always remember, you are talking to your Father in heaven, the one that made you, and instilled in you an unselfish attitude and, want you to adhere to what he built in you. God love you and want the image he built into you to shine every minute, whatever you are doing.    

                  Love you all!
