AFTER THIS MANNER ... PRAY. With model prayer, Christ indicates areas of concern that should occupy prayer.

1) Steal away to your personal space. 2) Do not use vain repetitions, as the heathen does. Why? Because they think they will be heard because of their many words. So do not babble on, and on.

Talk to God, and tell Him all about your needs. He already knows what you require, even before you ask, therefore be open, be honest.

"Have a little talk with Jesus, and tell Him all about your troubles, He will hear your smallest cry and will answer by and by."

Blessings,
