The freshness of a new year causes us to reflect and do something new. Some of us are Do-It-Yourself; we jump right in and figure it out. Others go straight to the expert. Sometimes, to learn something new, all we need to do is ask for help. That is what the disciples did over 2,000 years ago. Jesus’ prayers and prayer life caught the attention of the disciples. As recorded in the Old Testament, Jewish folks had been praying for centuries, so praying was not new for the disciples. The disciples observed something different about Jesus’ prayers. The disciples wanted to learn a new way to pray that was different from what they had already been doing. Jesus taught them. Similarly, Jesus teaches us a new prayer for a new year.
