Скачать или смотреть On Prayer: based on Luke 11: 1-13

The Lord’s Prayer.
It’s familiar and comforting.
We know it, we say it, we sing it.
But Jesus doesn’t stop with that wonderful prayer.
That building block of life.
He goes on.
And teaches us to be persistent.
He tells of a man knocking at midnight, asking for bread.
The friend says no at first - it’s late, he’s tired.
Still, the man keeps knocking.
And finally, the door is opened.
Not just because of their friendship,
but because he didn’t give up.
Jesus says: pray like that.
Keep asking. Keep seeking. Keep knocking.
Prayer is not about wearing God down or making demands.
It’s about trust.
God already loves us.
Nothing we say or do will change that.
God listens. Even when the answers are slow or silent.
Because prayer is not a wish list.
It’s a relationship.
We grow closer to God not by getting what we want,
but by being open to God.
Trusting, waiting, listening.
Staying close.
And knowing that in the end God will give us what we truly need:
Grace.
Hope.
Love.
