“Your Father knows what you need before you ask him”


Matthew 6:7-15

“And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our debts, As we also have forgiven our debtors; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil. For if you forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father also will forgive you; but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

An pagpangadje, isa ka buluhaton na naglambigit sa duha ka indibidwal – an nagsulti sanan an namati, pagkatapos an namati na’ sab an mosulti nan mamati ’sab an nauna na nagsaulti.

Amo ini an tag-laong kuman na komunikasyon.

Dinhi, tag-tudluan ni Jesus an Ija mga disciple nan tinood pagpangadje, pangadje na deresto kan God.

Takos na kita na motawag na “Our Father” kan God kay taggasahan man kita ni Jesus nan Holy Spirit na amo’y magdumaya dato sa ato mga espirituwal na kinabuhi.

Taghatagan kita ni Jesus nan luna na masuod kan God na may katakos sanan kompiyansa kay Ija man tag-agihan an kamatajon sanan pagkabanhaw.

Amo ini an tinood na gugma sanan pasaylo na ato madawat gikan kan God pinaagi kan Jesus Christ kay tinood man kita na Ija pinayangga na mga anak.

“Father in heaven, you have given me a mind to know you, a will to serve you, and a heart to love you. Give me today the grace and strength to embrace your holy will and fill my heart with your love that all my intentions and actions may be pleasing to you. Give me the grace to be charitable in thought, kind in deed, and loving in speech towards all."
