Tuesday of the 1st week of Lent

 

 

 

When you pray
Do not lay up empty phrases as the Gentiles do.
What can we say .
What do we actually do .

We can say Our Father who art in heaven.
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come on earth as in heaven.
Your will be done in your name.

To pray is so simple.
We do it once or twice a day.
Should we pray much more of the time, just something simple.
We can always find something to say.

To live we must surely pray.
Of that who can gainsay.

…….

Surely we should pray
Not just once or twice a day
But much more often

……

See Mathew 6: 7-13
