In the Garden With Jesus - a Lent Journey for TeensSample

Jesus prays, I pray.

To want to follow Jesus in prayer, I first need to believe that it’s possible, and that it’s worth it. The disciples thought so. They ask Him, “Lord, teach us to pray…” (Luke 11:1). They saw Him pray and the effect that prayer had on His life.

Prayer is a connection, communication and relationship exchange. Once you experience something of this, the word “prayer” becomes a wonderful word. It no longer means guilt, a burden or obligation, it means life.

This may take you to a place where you long to be like Jesus, live like Jesus. The reality is, we can’t do it on our own. Jesus has to help.
