Last week we started our mini-series, “Thy Kingdom Come,” to look at the Lord’s Prayer with fresh eyes. The prayer Jesus taught us has been said, sung, and prayed by millions of people, over thousands of years, all around the world, in multiple languages, from various ethnicities, ages, and social circumstances. Let us look at the Lord’s Prayer with fresh eyes, as a new prayer for a new year. When we focus our hearts and minds on the words to pray the words, not just say them, the Lord’s Prayer is a model prayer we can say verbatim. The Lord’s Prayer is a powerful and encompassing prayer that covers everything we want to share with God through prayer: honoring and affirming God’s holiness, sharing our personal needs, and remembering the needs of others. We can focus with our entire beings of body, mind, and spirit, with the spiritual practice of body prayer. You are invited to view the video of this message on our church website for the particulars of this body prayer. In this message, we focus on two related petitions Jesus teaches us to pray in Matthew 6:10: For God’s Kingdom to come, and For God’s Will to be done on earth as it is in heaven.
