Reflections
Isaiah 55:10-11, Matthew 6:7-15

"Father, you know what I need!"
‘Your Father already knows what you need before you ask him.’

This is the basis of every prayer, every conversation with God. We need to recognise Him as our Father, the one who loves, takes care, protects and provides. He is our Father who knows every single need before it is articulated. Therefore, we need to hold onto this sentence, ‘Your Father already knows what you need before you ask him’, whenever we enter into prayer.’

Therefore, we come before God with an uncomplicated heart that trusts Him enough to know that, in His time and in His way, He will give us what is truly best for us.

Questions for reflection:
1) Do I find it hard to recognise God as my Father who loves and takes care of me? Why?
