With what attitude should we pray?
Philippians 4:6
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
Prayer
Lord, as we pray to you now, help us to speak to you with our whole heart. Remind us that we pray to the one true, living God. And so we pray… [continue in prayer]. Amen.
