Luke 11:1-13 | Patterned by Prayer

May our prayerful Savior, Jesus, set the pattern for your engagement with God.

May you know the freedom in following the Son’s leading
to address your Heavenly Father with familiarity
while always maintaining the matchless wonder
that always accompanies a glimpse of His holiness.

May your need for the Kingdom of God to come in your heart
lead you to walk each day in humility
as the King chooses to make His reign known through your life.

May you bring your daily needs before your Father with honesty and trust;
may your heart have a similar posture
when in repentance you accept His grace
and turn to offer such grace to your neighbors as well.

May you be ever aware of the temptations that hinder us so stealthily,
asking your Father for protection and help for when they are near.

May the promise of the Holy Spirit’s presence with you
be an everlasting comfort and guide for you
through every season of this life.

May the Lord bless you and keep you.
May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you.
May the Lord lift up His countenance to you and bring you peace.
