Reading: Matthew 6: 7-15 Reflection: Do you remember how you learned the Lord's Prayer? I do. When I was young, my mom and dad taught my sister and me the Lord's Prayer each night after we ate supper. We would have to learn a line or two before we could have dessert. Then, the next night we would have to repeat from memory what we learned the night before. Jesus taught us to pray by heralding our God's name, by praying that God's will be done, by asking for our needs, and by asking for forgiveness for our sins. He also taught up to forgive one another. What a great lesson Jesus taught in so few words! I was also told that when in doubt about what to pray, you should praise the Lord for sending us God's only son. What more would a father want hear than praise for his son? God sent us the greatest gift of all and we should thank God for it! May people wonder what they should say in their prayers. Well, just look at the Lord's Prayer. It is spelled out in that simple prayer that many have learned as children, maybe even at the dinner table. --Chad Hershberger, Camp Mount Luther Director Closing: Pray the Lord's Prayer.
