THE  OUR  FATHER 


It was the year 3016 and nobody seemed to
know the ancient prayer: the Our Father.

Nobody…. Nobody…. Nobody…. Nobody
was aware of the prayer: the Our Father.

Nobody was praying…. Nobody was aware of
the beauty of daily bread and daily forgiveness.

Nobody was aware of the Kingdom
and working to bring it about each day.

Nobody made holy, hallowed or called out
on earth or into the heavens, “Our Father….”

Then someone found a copy of this
ancient prayer and things began to change.

[I got this impression at a funeral lately.
I said, “Our Father” and nobody seemed

aware or dared to say, “Our Father….”]
