Jesus knew the importance of prayer & often spent a lot of time praying for one & other as well as being alone in prayer.
He shared the Lord's Prayer to us as a template prayer, to give us structure to how to present our prayers to God, starting from the beginning of recognizing who our God is. "Our Father who art in Heaven"
