GOD'S PERFECT PRESCRIPTION

Heavenly Father,

       Thanks so much for giving us the perfect prescription for finding sweet serenity. Finding sweet serenity is as simple as obeying Your Word - making Your Word first place, loving God and trusting God with full assurance that He alone is The Way.

Heavenly Father,

       There's a reason why Jesus taught us to pray to Our Father in Heaven.
       The reason; Hallowed is Thy Name.
       
       The prayer Jesus taught us to pray:
                 Thy Kingdom Come, Thy Will Be Done ...
                  ... on earth as it is in Heaven.

        Jesus taught us to pray for our provision as well as for our forgiveness:
                  Give us this day our daily bread ... and ...
                  Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.

        Jesus also taught us about how to pray for God's leading and protection:
                  Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

        Why Jesus taught us to pray this way:
                 For Thine alone, Dear Father, is ....
                 The Kingdom, Power, and Glory .... forever and ever. Amen.

Heavenly Father,

         Jesus taught us in this model prayer:
                  1. How to seek, approach and communicate with You.
                  2. What exactly to pray for.
                  3. To Ask The Source of Provision for needed provision.
                  4. To Seek forgiveness from Source of Forgiveness.
                  5. To Knock on Guiding Protector's door for assistance.
                  6. Acknowledge the Reverence due and why.

Heavenly Father,
              
         Jesus taught us the path to finding sweet serenity. And how awesome it is that even Jesus acknowledged that there is no sweet serenity apart from You.  :0)
