do you think about it?
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 trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory,
for ever and ever.
Amen.
do you think and mean these words when you pray them or is it just a routine?? that was the question we asked the girls in our 11-14year old group this morning....and i found myself challenged by it....sometimes i say the Lords Prayer without thinking or meaning what i am saying....the line which i felt God saying to me was
"and forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us"
i struggle with forgivness a lot...its a weak point for me....i really feel i need to pray and ask God to help me forgive some people in my life who have hurt me.....
Hallowed be thy Name.
Thy kingdom come.

On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation,
But deliver us from evil.

On forgiveness, we did our cell on it a couple of days ago. I played them this Alanis Morissette song called The Grudge from her album So Called Chaos.
It almost made me cry.
Y'know how loads of her early tracks are really really bitter? Well, this song kinda says the reason why, and is her saying she doesn't wanna carry that bitterness around anymore.
The lyrics are at http://tinyurl.com/htcas, but I recommend listening to it - the melody's gorgeous too.
