We have all said the Lord’s Prayer countless times. So often, in fact, that those storied words of praise, petition, and challenge may have become simple rote repetitions. However, within that prayer there is a radical affirmation. God’s will is to be lived on earth. Right here, right now in each of our lives God’s will is to be witnessed. That is the fundamental and inescapable call on the heart of every follower of Jesus Christ. To be builders of God’s Kingdom on earth. That is no easy task. How is the divine will to be experienced within the context of contemporary life? Perhaps an apt starting point is to look at the world through God’s eyes. What does one see that is contrary to God’s good creation? And, how does one respond? Only God’s Holy Spirit can answer that question. But, God’s Holy Spirit will. Now, that is genuinely Good News. Blessings, Pastor Tom Luke 11:1-4
