THE “REAL PRESENCE” OF CHRIST IS FOUND IN… (PAGE 124-126)
(10) On their return the apostles told Jesus al l they had done. He took them with him and withdrew privately to a city called Bethsaida. (11) When the crowds found out about i t , they fol lowed him; and he welcomed them, and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed to be cured. (12) The day was drawing to a close, and the twelve came to him and said, "Send the crowd away, so that they may go into the surrounding vi l lages and countryside, to lodge and get provisions; for we are here in a deserted place." (13) But he said to them, "You give them something to eat." They said, "We have no more than f ive loaves and two f ish—unless we are to go and buy food for al l these people." (14) For there were about f ive thousand men. And he said to his disciples, "Make them sit down in groups of about f i f ty each." (15) They did so and made them all sit down. (16) And taking the f ive loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven, and blessed and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the crowd. (17) And all ate and were f i l led. What was left over was gathered up, twelve baskets of broken pieces.

3. What does the Lord’s prayer teach us about God?
4. What does it teach us about ourselves?
5. What do Jesus’ actions teach us about prayer?
JESUS TEACHES US HOW TO PRAY (PAGES 202-205; 211)
From last
night…
Luke 11:2-4
2He said to them, "When you pray, say:
" 'Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come.
3Give us each day our daily bread. 4Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into temptation. "
Matthew 6:9-13
"This, then, is how you should pray:
" 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 11Give us today our daily bread. 12Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 13And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.'
". . .prayer taught by Jesus to His disciples, and the principle prayer used by all Christians in common worship.
"The Lord's Prayer resembles other prayers that come out of the Jewish matrix of Jesus' time and contains three common Jewish elements: praise, petition and a yearning for the common Kingdom of God .
"Biblical scholars disagree about Jesus' meaning in the Lord's Prayer. Some view it as "existential," referring to man's present experience on earth, while others interpret it as “eschatological,” referring to the coming Kingdom of God.
TRADITIONAL MATTHEAN VERSION (Roman Catholic)
Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be thy name; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; And forgive us our trespasses, As we forgive those who trespass against us; And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from evil.
