Matthew 6:9
"This then, is how you should pray: Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name."NIV
"After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name." KJV
When we pray, we have the marvelous privilege of coming to the One who has power over all things, and dwells above all things, and knows all things. And yet we are told to call Him "Our Father." Amazing! Even more wonderful, we ask God to make His own name holy and to honor His own name. And then we merely talk to Him about our needs, our concerns, and our spiritual supplies. We can just talk to Him in His exalted greatness. Amazing!
Heavenly Father, our minds cannot conceive of Your greatness, it is far beyond what we can comprehend. Help us to never forget Your almighty power, presence, and knowledge or your unending love and greatness. Give us a hunger to merely talk with You in Your majestic splendor. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

How true there is absolutely no way for our tiny little minds to conceive the huge greatness of our God.....I agree! Hello on Sunday across the way ...! Happy Sunday
ReplyDeleteMy earthly father made it so easy for me to come to my Heavenly Father. Even with such a good earthly example, my father cannot be with me always. For that I need my Heavenly Father.
