Ecclesiasticus 48:1-14; Ps.97; Matthew 6:7-15

Your father knows …

Our father is not an automatic dispenser of goodies and treats. He is looking for relationship with us, one of friendship and love. He wants us to acknowledge him, to talk to him and tell him of our needs and failings. He knows we struggle to do his will, that we have physical and practical needs, are sinned against and sinning. We need to acknowledge all of these and let him walk beside us in all of life’s situations.
