September 22

Matthew 11:25-27; 26:36-46

When I read the bible, I tend to spend time considering why the author would include what he wrote or wonder why he left something out. The gospels record so few of the prayers of Jesus. The gospel writers focus far more on what Jesus taught than what he prayed. These passages contain two of the prayers offered by Jesus. With the infrequency of his prayers, why are these two included? Spend some time considering what we can learn about prayer from the inclusion of these two.
