Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever. Amen.
This week we have sought to dive deeply into the words of the Lord’s Prayer. To bring them close to our hearts, let the words settle into our souls, and sing to our lives. To explore what is stirred within us.
“Wait,” you might say, “You skipped over that part about forgiveness.”
Very perceptive! And now would be the opportunity for me to invite you to worship this Sunday at 9 am and 11 am when I will share some thoughts on this important petition in the Lord’s Prayer.
Thanks for helping me plug worship, by the way!
Today, I invite you back to the exercise that started the week. Go through the prayer intentionally and slowly circling words that you still struggle to wrap your mind/heart/soul around. Place a rectangle around words that are healing or helpful or feel holy.
Keep praying with me at noon, keep talking to others, keep letting the Lord’s Prayer ground and guide you in these days.
Prayer: Open my creativity and my connection to You, O God, author/composure/conductor of my life. Amen.
