Our Father,
Our
Father in Heaven,
holy, holy, holy is Your Name.
Oh, how I want
Your Kingdom to come
and Your Will to be done
in my life, in my home,
in my church,
in The Church
on the earth
as it is in Heaven.
Thank You for giving us
Your Word each day –
our bread,
the Bread of Life.
And thank You
for giving us Your forgiveness
and helping us choose
to forgive others
for trespassing against us.
We thank and praise You, Lord,
that we can trust You
to never
lead us into temptation
but always
deliver us from evil
and all kinds of ills.
We praise You, praise You
for Your Kingdom life in us
and Your Holy Spirit power.
May all we are
and all we do
be for Your praise
and glory
forever and ever
in Jesus’ Name,
amen.

Dear Mary,
What a beautiful interpretation of The Lord's Prayer! I am going to share this with my students at the jail who are always enchanted with your prayers! Blessings, Shari ;-0
Thank you so much, Shari! I've been wanting to do a book of prayer-a-phrased prayers, and your note really encourages me! God bless.
Thank, Nellie. That means a lot coming from a fellow poet. :)
What a blessing! Thank you, Pat.
Your response is a blessing to me, Martha Jane. Thank you.
I love this, Mary! I prayed along as I read it aloud. My cats enjoyed it too...I think :)
