“Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this: He will make your righteousness shine like the dawn, and the justice of your cause like the noonday sun.” (Psalm 37:5) 

Children learn to talk. We too have been learning, talking with God in fits and starts ourselves. We half imagine that we are real adults, mature, stable and important in our own corners of the world. But truth be, we are children ourselves, and nothing shows this more than our quest to communicate with God. We are just beginning our eternal lives, so in that sense we are just infants, learning a skill of unimaginable honor and one we will practice forever. We are learning to pray. 

Lord, teach us to pray. Amen.

Our Father in heaven,
Reveal who you are.
Set the world right;
Do what’s best—
as above, so below.
Keep us alive with three square meals.
Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others.
Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil.
You’re in charge!
You can do anything you want!
You’re ablaze in beauty!
Yes. Yes. Yes.

(Matthew 6:9-13 The Message Bible)
