Prayer with a difference


Eugene Peterson is an inspired author, pastor and teacher. I love his version of the Lord's Prayer. It just brings a different dimension to something that we know well. Sometimes familiarity can close our senses to the beauty of the True message. Read this and see if it breathes some freshness into the ancient prayer:

"Our Father in heaven,
Reveal who you are.
Set the world right:
Do what's best - as above, so below.
Keep us alive with three square meals.
Keep us forgiven with you and forgiving others.
Keep us safe from ourselves and the Devil.
You're in charge!
You can do anything you want!
You're ablaze in beauty!
Yes. Yes. Yes."


Enjoy and be blessed.

Living in Grace,
