MATTHEW 6:9b-13 (Kids’ translation)Hello Daddy! We want to know You. And be close to You. Please show us how. Make everything in the world right again. And in our hearts, too. Do what is best—just like You do in the heavens, and please do it down here, too. Please give us everything we need today. Forgive us for doing wrong, for hurting You. Forgive us just as we forgive other people when they hurt us. Rescue us! We need You. We don’t want to keep running away and hiding from You. And please keep us safe from our enemies.

MATTHEW 6:25-33Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more

than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?

MATTHEW 6:25-33Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed

like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

Page 9: Invitation 9.6.15

MATTHEW 6:25-33Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’

or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

WHAT WE REALLY NEED“The biggest thing the people of Vintage need is to recognize the depth of their need for Me.”

WHAT WE REALLY NEED“The biggest thing the people of Vintage need is to recognize the depth of their need for Me.”EPHESIANS 5:18“…be (continuously) filled with the Holy Spirit (over and over and over again).”

LUKE 11:9-13And I tell you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened. What father among you, if his son asks for a fish, will instead of a fish give him a serpent; or if he asks for an egg, will give him a scorpion? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will the heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!

MATTHEW 6:16-18And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.
