What is the most perfect prayer? ›

The Lord's Prayer is the most perfect of prayers. . . . In it we ask, not only for all the things we can rightly desire, but also in the sequence that they should be desired. This prayer not only teaches us to ask for things, but also in what order we should desire them.

It is not only the shortest prayer but also the shortest and earliest creed. Twice the New Testament mentions this most basic of all the Christian creeds: the simple three-word sentence "Jesus is Lord" (I Cor 12:3) and the same creed in four words: "Jesus Christ is Lord" (Phil 2:11).

He Will Listen to Your Child's Needs

A big characteristic of a successful marriage is one where both partners listen to each other. Your son-in-law wants you to know he's all ears and will listen when your child brings something to the table, even if it's something that's hard to talk about.

Put the child at ease by showing them you're friendly. Smile at the child, keep your arms open, and angle your body toward them. When you need to talk to them directly, try to get down on their level. If you seem closed off, the child might think you're mean or don't like them.

“Heavenly Father, I have to thank You for looking beyond my faults and for loving me unconditionally. Forgive me when I fail to love others in the same way. Give me eyes to see the needs of the difficult people in my life, and show me how to meet those needs in a way that pleases You.

Give me Your Spirit, Lord, that I can have strength to please You in all things. Create in me a new heart. I devote my life to You now. Please, Jesus, be my Lord and Savior forever.

You are our loving Father and I believe that You therefore understand exactly how I feel. Please help me to be what I should be in this situation and give me the grace to trust in You always. I believe that in Your will is our peace, but please help me to live this out, as I find it so hard when she is suffering.
