Challenging The Lord's Prayer – Author Unknown


I cannot say OUR if I live only for myself.


I Cannot say FATHER if I do not endeavour each day to act like His child.


I cannot say WHO ART IN HEAVEN if I am laying up no treasure there.


I cannot say HALLOWED BE THY NAME if I am not striving for holiness.


I cannot say THY KINGDOM COME if I am not doing all in my power to hasten that wonderful event.


I cannot say THY WILL BE DONE if I am disobedient to His word.


I cannot say ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN if I will not serve Him here and now.


I cannot say GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD if I am dishonest or seeking things by subterfuge.


I cannot say FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES if I harbour a grudge against anyone.


I cannot say LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION if I deliberately place myself in its path.


I cannot say DELIVER US FROM EVIL if I do not put on the whole armour of God.


I cannot say THINE IS THE KINGDOM if I do not give the King the loyalty due him from a faithful subject.


I cannot say THE POWER if I fear what others may do.


I cannot say THE GLORY if I am seeking honor only for myself.


I cannot say FOREVER if the horizon of my life is bounded by the things of today.
