Disciple's Prayer Part II

 May your Kingdom come soon.

May your will be done on earth,

As it is in heaven.

May we not forget our true President, our true King, our true Judge.

May we not distract ourselves from what matters in the end, in the eternity without end.

May we not bow down to our own self-made idols, or other mortals guilty like us.

May your goal be our goal, your love our love, your justice our justice.

May your perfect will become ours, rather than our imperfect will become yours.

May you give us your eyes, your logic, your plans to replace ours that blind, drift, and crumble.

As it is at your feet,

As it is in your untainted creation,

As it is where you dwell,

As it is in your vision,

As it is in your action.


(Words in Italics quoted from Tyndale House Publishers: Holy Bible : New Living Translation. 2nd ed. Wheaton, Ill. : Tyndale House Publishers, 2004, S. Mt 6:10 )
