This, then, is how you should pray: ‘Our Father in heaven: May your holy name be honoured; may your Kingdom come; may your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us today the food we need. Forgive us the wrongs we have done, as we forgive the wrongs that others have done to us. Do not bring us to hard testing, but keep us safe from the Evil One.’
Matthew 6:9-13 GNBDK
Reflections:
Jesus teaches us how to pray and through this prayer there three facets that stand out, namely: Praise, Forgiveness and Petition. We ought to Praise God at all times and in all circumstances. Forgiveness cleanses are soul, and it is only in forgiving others that we will be forgiven. And lastly Petition, God is our Father and knows of our every need and we can ask of him without any hesitation.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to pray as Jesus taught. May you praise God in all circumstances as you willingly forgive those who wrong you. And may his Holy Spirit help you ask of God's will for your life. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
