The model prayer by Jesus gives us a blueprint for communicating with God. It is one Jesus placed in stark contrast to hypocritical repetitive public prayer. It is not a poem, chant, or mantra. It is communication between a father and child on a highly intimate and very private level. In only a few words is laid out man's relationship to God and his fellow man in a simple but yet complex manner. It shows how little we need to express to cover all the needs of lives. Prayer is one of the most vital components of our physical and spiritual lives in this world. Prayer is our intiimate connection with God. It is where we gain knowledge and wisdom to manage and maintain life in all its wondrous glory. It is a very private and personal place that God has set aside to visit with us and it is available twenty four hours a day and every day of our lives. Prayer is in our inner sanctum and God is there.
