In the Gospel of Luke 11:1-13, Jesus was praying in a certain place and when He had finished, one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord teach us how to pray.” And Jesus taught them the Lord’s Prayer. “Our Father”. I heard some people would openly say, why bother to pray, I have nothing to ask for, because I have what I want. Others would say, I pray but nothing happens, so why waste time? These are common complainants about prayer. There are three questions about prayer that I would like to discuss in this reflection. What is prayer? Why do we need to pray? What is the best prayer? WHAT DO WE MEAN BY PRAYER? Prayer is an expression of one’s desire for communion with God. Spiritual writers usually define it as “the lifting up of mind and hearts to God” or “the communication between God and human being.” Prayer is a Father and child communication, it must be personal and intimate. WHY DO WE NEED TO PRAY? Jesus who is God himself always is in communion with the Father through prayer. He asks His disciples to pray always, so that they won’t be subjected to temptation. He teaches His disciples to pray and He asks us to pray constantly. Mary, the mother of God is sinless, prayed. All the saints in heaven prayed. Our brothers and sisters who were not Christians prayed many times in a day. How much more for us who claim to be followers of Christ. A Christian without Christ is NOTHING. If we take out the word CHRIST from the word CHRISTIAN, the remaining letters are IAN which means I Am Nothing! In short, without Christ, I am nothing. Pray always because Jesus is faithful to all His promises. WHAT IS THE BEST PRAYER? The perfect prayer is the Lord’s Prayer – The OUR FATHER. We often pray the Lord’s Prayer but it loses its teeth because we pray this without any reflection or without meaning. We see that prayer, according to Jesus, is a child-father affair. It’s a family affair based on a relationship of love and intimacy not on power and authority. The best way to know more about prayer; to find the answer why we need to pray; and to find the perfect way of praying: is to ASK, to SEEK and to KNOCK- as Jesus assures His disciples in the Gospel “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and it will be opened to you.” (Luke 11:9) Let us pray for one another…God bless us all. Yours in Christ, Fr. Jojo Community Life Welcome to St. Michael’s!
