Prayer is not just about asking for things. It's about receiving what has already been given to us in Christ.

Praying the Word of God back to God carries didactic import. It teaches us.
05/22/23
The Lord’s prayer is a prayer in perfect accord with the will of God, and Jesus gifts it to us to plagiarize at will.

That great truth of creedal Christianity – that God is man in Christ – is not set forth for our speculative enjoyment.
12/25/22
When we pray to Jesus, we pray to the King's right hand. We know one who has the Father's ear, respect and trust. And the one who intercedes for us is still one of us, with nail-pierced hands.
