September 28th, 2025 | Prayer isn’t performance or persuasion—it’s God’s way of re-focusing our distracted hearts. The Lord’s Prayer is not just words to repeat, but a pattern that realigns our attention: first on God’s name, His kingdom, His will … then on our needs, relationships, and protection. When we live in awe of God, our direction changes. Our anxious, self-centered prayers turn into confident surrender to the Father who already knows what we need.
