The Lord's Prayer - Matthew 6: 9-13
9 "This, then, is how you should pray:
"'Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,[a]
but deliver us from the evil one.[
Learning to listen to God:
- Make space and remove distractions
- Clear your head
- Reflect on a bible verse
- When mind wanders, keep bringing yourself back to that verse (or a word about God e.g. majesty)
- If worrying about things etc - don't just push it down but give it to God before letting it go
- Write things down as God speaks or as they come into your mind
