So, we say this prayer everyday. We know the words off by heart, probably learnt it when we were really young. But how much time do we spend really reflecting on this prayer?
Our Father, Who art in heaven
Hallowed be Thy Name;
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us;
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Amen.
What does it mean?
Why do we say it?
What's the most important part of this prayer? Why?
It's a tough one. At the moment my favourite part of this prayer is "Give us this day our daily bread", because I feel that sometimes we take God for granted and don't always appreciated all the things He has given us and continues to do for us. So everytime I say that bit I remember all that He does and continues to do for me and I'm comforted because I remember He loves me so much He thinks of me everyday.
But what about you? What's your favourite bit, why? Why is this prayer so important?

PS My mum likes "Thy will be done" because it shows her that God has planned everything and He knows how things will turn out, so we can be happy knowing that if we follow His commands, He will guide our lives. Ask your family for their ideas. Comment on other peoples ideas.
