There were two thieves crucified with Christ. Both of them railed on the Lord at the beginning. Then over one came a change for the better. Perhaps he saw in the face of the the Lord the expression of God's compassionate love.
To this crucified soul, the thief addressed one of the briefest but must desperately needy prayers of all time – "Lord remember me". God the Son heard and answered that prayer for all time and eternity.
Prayers do not need formal language or ritualistic surroundings. They must be from the heart, and this one was.
Luke 23:39-45
