Prayer is a transformative relationship that shapes believers, not just a religious activity. The Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6 and Luke 11 provides a framework for developing a prayer culture that transforms from within. Prayer begins with intentionality but becomes organic over time, like learning any new skill. When we pray 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name,' we're reminded of who God is (approachable and loving), who we are (saints who've experienced grace), and our connection to others as family. Balancing God's closeness with His majesty creates a prayer life that reorders our affections and transforms us.
