My eldest daughter is four this year. She’s been talking a lot more to me lately, which is a joy.

Something I’ve noticed: when she talks to me, she mostly uses the words she heard from me.

When I’m not sure what to say to my Heavenly Father, speaking His words back to Him is a good place to start.

Maybe it’s even the best place to start.

After all, that’s how we learned to speak to our fathers.
