"The Lord's Prayer" - Station 1


"Our Father, who art in heaven..."


Supplies Needed
-digital photo frame
-various digital images depicting God, heaven, fathers, etc.

Look closely at the pictures on the screen. Focus on one or two that remind you of this part of the Lord's prayer. God invites every one of His children to come before Him in prayer. Put yourself in the picture, or consider the situation in the picture. How is God speaking to you through the image?

Here is God's invitation to speak to Him, child to Father. He doesn't require us to address Him in formal words, but to address Him as "Dad." And, as the perfect Father, He listens to His dear children and is able to provide all that they need.

As you pray...
+ Take your relationship with your earthly parent(s) to God. Offer up a prayer of thanksgiving, ask for forgiveness, for guidance, for reconciliation... for whatever that relationship needs.
+ Share your deepest fears, your hidden conflicts, your strongest desires... whatever you wish to share... with your Father in heaven.
+ Remember our Father, the King of heaven and earth, can move heaven and earth to provide everything you need in this life and the next.
