How To Talk To God

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 24, 2016

"Lord, teach us to pray." In response, Jesus gives his disciples and us the model prayer, the "Our Father" or "Lord's Prayer." He continues with strong teaching to be persistent, knowing that God loves us more than we love our own children.

Genuine fulfillment is measured by who you have it with. That is true in this life. I believe that is also true ...read more
