persevering in prayer
Sticky heat stops the world: Lake drowns greyish mist, trees drink moisture, water smell seeps into the brain, and they begin to wander restlessly memories thicket. Slowing life melody terminated constant staccato , which had evolved in the heart and form self rhythm. When you try to stop the chaotic thoughts and feelings of the melody, the head always seeps and finally greyish order and tranquility sheath encloses the whole Our Father ...
The other day the prayer Jesus taught that every day could quietly or loudly I say to the community for more than 50 years.
"Father, hallowed be thy name./Your kingdom come."
I say these words in the morning and in the evening, I remember them in traffic jams, their trip down the street, waiting for joyful meeting or compressed anxiety. It guise of shield them from curious glances. Impossible Kingdom's application for many years accompanied me out of the cabinet in the student audience, when in despair again and again every time you realize that lo and behold, the day after to lose his lecture thoughts necklace and jumble it, leaving me speechless. But the name of the Father and the Father's kingdom promised to summon the words over and over again gives grace to share ideas and thinking paradoxes.
They invite you to stay calm and silence, they ask for forgiveness.
"Our daily bread Give us this day /
I'm not a child hunger: on my table never lacked food, and even when I felt a lack of, it's just a measure. But every day and said, these words halt second thought and again I ask the true daily bread - work, dedication, love, faith and hope.
These words, again pointing me to the next, which is the hope of going out, the body and the soul is plagued by hunger and cold. Please, Father, take from me and divide those in greater need. Teach with few prospects and bestow the body but not the soul of poverty.
They call on the patience and endurance, they ask for forgiveness.
"And forgive us our trespasses, / as we forgive everyone who is guilty./ And lead us not into temptation"
Guilt - the hardest of my burden, but I know it makes sense only when a clear distinction between himself and someone else's fault. Long thought that pain easy to dismiss, but, Father, and I fulfill your wishes, if someone else's guilt accept it on your own? Unbearable burden, can no longer own or redeemed, nor let another soul to seek the way to the truth. And then humility turns to pride, humility - arrogance, courage - anger.
They call on the wisdom and justice, they ask for forgiveness.
