Spiritual Fathers:

"I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has been from the beginning."

1 John 2:13

We get hints about the "possible" content of fathers in the faith?

"Through Him then, let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that give thanks to His name. 16 And do not neglect doing good and sharing; for with such sacrifices God is pleased. 17 Obey your leaders, and submit to them; for they keep watch over your souls, as those who will give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with grief, for this would be unprofitable for you.

 18 Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a good conscience, desiring to conduct ourselves honorably in all things. 19 And I urge you all the more to do this, that I may be restored to you the sooner."

Hebrews 13:15-19

"Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself; 4 do not merely look out for your own personal interests, but also for the interests of others. 5 Have this attitude in yourselves which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men."

Philippians 2:3-7

We have the content of Jesus' prayer."

"I glorified Thee on the earth, having accomplished the work which Thou hast given Me to do. 5 "And now, glorify Thou Me together with Thyself, Father, with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was.

17 "Sanctify them in the truth; Thy word is truth. 19 And for their sakes I sanctify Myself, that they themselves also may be sanctified in truth."

John 17:3-5, 17, 19

Our so what?

Children in the faith pray as a child; young men in the faith pray as young men, remembering as fathers, we will be much less concerned with what we see, for that is temporal, but with what we cannot see, for that is eternal. 

Gratitude.

Humility.

God's glory. 

And our calling in this life. (Set apart - Sanctified according to His word.)

"What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."
