Prayer rooted in love, not fear

Though we may fall to temptation, “God does not punish us as sinners. We only need to look around us to realize this. Our prayer should not be inspired by fear of God’s punishment but by our love for God. We want to enter His kingdom where everything is perfect - as we pray, Your kingdom come.

And we want to do His will - as we pray, Your will be done, on earth, as it is in heaven. But we are also aware of our imperfections and transgressions. That is why we ask God to forgive our sins and remove our guilt” (Chief Apostle Schneider, November 2024).
