Jesus Praying in the Desert
• When would Jesus go off to pray by himself?
“Lord Teach us to Pray” Luke 11:1
• The disciples wanted to learn how to pray.
• The Our Father -It is short and powerful
• The Lord's Prayer - is full of wisdom
The Agony in Garden
• When Jesus prayed in Gethsemane, "Yet not as I will, but as You will," He offered a tremendous but seemingly simple insight into prayer: God is in charge.
On the Cross• "Father, forgive
them, for they do not know what they do.”
• "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?“
Prayer as a Preparation for Easter
• Prayer is so important because it brings us in line with the will of our Father
• Pray daily – begin your day with prayer – rosary, Liturgy of the Hours, divine Mercy, Mass ….
Adoration
The Resurrection
