One line a day of the prayer Jesus taught his friends. Read the line, sit with it, then pray it in your own words for ten minutes. By day 7 you'll have a pattern you can use for the rest of your life.

What you'll need: ten quiet minutes and Matthew 6:9-13.

The days

Day 1 in full. The rest open as you go.

  1. Day 1

    Our Father in heaven

    The taskPray "Our Father in heaven" in your own words.

    Matthew 6:9

    1. Pray before you read: ask God for wisdom to understand it and to live it (James 1:5).
    2. Read Matthew 6:9-13 once, slowly.
    3. Think about what it means to call God Father. If your own dad was hard, say that to Him honestly.
    4. Tell Him you're His son, and ask Him to lead you like one.
    5. Sit quietly for one minute.
  2. Day 2

    Hallowed be your name

  3. Day 3

    Your kingdom come, your will be done

  4. Day 4

    Give us today our daily bread

  5. Day 5

    Forgive us, as we forgive

  6. Day 6

    Lead us not into temptation

  7. Day 7

    The whole prayer

Run it with your rhythm

While a plan runs, it replaces that pillar's daily task. It moves forward when you keep a day, not by the calendar, so a missed day never skips anything.
