Lord's Prayer

Tonight the children will be learning about the Lord's prayer.  It is a prayer that they know well but why do we say it? Why is it important to talk to God? Tonight during your prayer time before bed ask or tell your children why it is important for us to pray and talk to God.

Simple explanation is that we want a friendship (relationship) with God. To get to know someone or to keep up a friendship you have to talk to each other. That is what we are doing with God. Talking to him. Thanking him for the things he gives us, asking him to forgive us of our sins, thanking him for Jesus, asking him to guide us and praying for those in need.
