Today's Inspiration: Our Father
This, then, is how you should pray: "Our Father in heaven...."
Matthew 6:9
When the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, teach us to pray," jesus began by saying, "Our Father!" Of all the terms which Jesus could have used - "Almighty God" or "Great Creator" or "Oh Thou, Maker of heaven and earth," He chose simply to use the word "Father" - a word that is warm, intimate and personal.
All prayer is based on a relationship, the relationship of a child with his or her father "Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God" (John 1:12).
The term "Father" is a term of reliance and of respect. It was the time of Cuban missile crisis. President John F. Kennedy has just called a press conference in the Oval Office of the White House when a door opened and his four-year-old son wandered into the room. The press conference stopped as a father put aside the lofty affairs of government because his child needed him. This is a picture of our heavenly father's concern for you. He is never so busy running the world that He doesn't hear or have time for even the most insignificant cry of His children.

If You would probably agree that talking to a certain friend or loved one is a lot like talking to a brick wall. A brick wall does not listen or respond. It doesn't feel empathy. It doesn't react in any way. And yet you keep talking to that brick wall, hoping to get through. But why are you bothering, Taurus? Unless and until your brick-wall loved one transforms into a more receptive listener, you might as well stop wasting your breath. In fact, if you give it a break you may find that this person does become more open to conversation.
