It's so cool how God works! I mean, He is truly amazing! Lately, the Lord's Prayer has really been on my heart and often at night, I would find myself praying it...letting the part of "Thy will be done" really sink in. I like to plan and know what is happening next in life, but it is much better to surrender to what God's plans for my life are...they are WAY better than my own! Anyway, so it had really been on my heart and then yesterday at church, we said The Lord's Prayer together as a congregation. Even more fun than that, though, is last night in our Bible Study, what else did we study but...The Lord's Prayer :) And, the speaker on the DVD we watched had a great idea. He encouraged us to pray the Lord's Prayer over others...use it as a guide for when we pray for others. He had some other great ideas, but that was a really great one! So, I wanted to write out the Lord's Prayer as a prayer to our Heavenly Father tonight:
"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.
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven 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 and ever. Amen."
