These words (or a very slightly different, UK version of them) are burned into my memories, as we recited them every morning at school for 12 years. I've never been a religious person, so to me, it was just part of school routine, but I still see the value - this is how we learn to act and behave as one, to understand we're in this life together.

Comment from karenina
A powerful reminder. I learned this prayer in Kindergarten...
It's been a daily offering ever since.
I wanted to share with you that I worked with Alzheimer patients for nearly thirty years...
Many did not recognize a single family member. Most became nonverbal at end stage.
Without fail, if I sat after my nursing duties and held their hand...beginning to recite The Lord's Prayer?
You guessed it.
They would join in, word for word!
Blessings!

Comment from K.L. Rockquemore
I enjoyed this verse emphasizing a prayer used by Christian's at church.
I am not a Christian, but I can appreciate the obvious love that you have for your faith and how you believe society as a whole is in need of religion now more than ever.
I agree, wholeheartedly!!
The state of our country today is unimaginable.
How can we make it better?
Can we make it better?
When will it be better?
Your sentiment is a perfect one.
Thanks for sharing.

You did a great job, Barbara. I liked your presentation just
as it is. The art choice and color scheme worked well. I agree
with you about the attitude of so many including the churches.
I've memorized this prayer forever.
Thanks for sharing, Jan

I have a stainless steel cross and a copy of this prayer in my wallet. I hold the cross and recite the prayer in times of stress. It's amazing how quickly my stress lessens. It doesn't go away but I remember I don't have to face things alone. Thank you for posting.

Thank you for posting the Lord's Prayer. It covers everything that we need to be praying about especially about giving and receiving forgiveness. That's the path to peace. When I'm thinking and walking, this is what I pray.

This is really beautiful, I agree, it should be talked about more in the churches. I love how you empathize those powerful words: THINE, and FOREVER AMEN. Nice touch. Our world needs Jesus now more than ever. Thank you for this beautiful piece.
May your pen continue to be blessed,
