The Anatomy of Prayer

“Prayer in its most basic form is talking to God in response to His talking to us. Prayer is communion and communication. Prayer is the most basic act of faith. Yet many of us find rich, satisfying prayer to be quite difficult. Throughout the Anatomy of Prayer, we’ll explore the four major themes of prayer: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication (ACTS). Each week we’ll look at a Psalm that provides unique wisdom about each of the letters of ACTS. We hope this series both inspires you to pray and provides you with the tools to know how!”

Since the whole world is our Father’s world, we should praise God and ask whatever we want.
