Luke 11:1-6

1 One day he was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said, "Master, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples."
2 So he said, "When you pray, say, Father, Reveal who you are. Set the world right.
3 Keep us alive with three square meals.
4 Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others. Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil."
5 Then he said, "Imagine what would happen if you went to a friend in the middle of the night and said, 'Friend, lend me three loaves of bread.
6 An old friend traveling through just showed up, and I don't have a thing on hand.'
