Prayer is a core part of our faith life. Perhaps that is why I find that I have shared a message about prayer four times this year. Furthermore, there are a variety of ways to understand what prayer is. Because of that, there are a variety of books that explain “how” to pray and even the words to use when we pray. It is, therefore, natural for me to weigh in with some thoughts of my own, as drawn from Matthew 6:7-15. As it turns out, Jesus had some instructions on praying!
