Psalm 107:1, "Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever."


Today's message was on Luke 15, the parables of the lost sheep,coin,and son.
i guess whatever i learnt during vcf through reflecting had a greater impact than today's message on man's responsibility to return back to our heavenly Father.

but i've learnt from a sidetrack to the Lord's prayer.

How?How do you actually pray?What should you actually pray about?

I always thought that the Lord's prayer sounds very nice in chinese.
But now i know.

Seek ye 1st the kingdom of God,
and His righteousness.
and all these things should be added onto you.

Therefore Jesus said, this is how you should pray.
Our father in heaven,
Holy be your name.
Your kingdom come,
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Always wait in anticipation for His kingdom,
always trust that His good will is always done and will always be good.
and all these things will be added unto you,
because the next line says

give us today our daily bread.
only when you seek God's kingdom,
then ask for your own needs.
and God will give them to you.

Then ask God to preserve us.
Because in this world,
we will never be able to triumph over sin without God's help.

Forgive us our sins,
As we forgive those who sin against us.
Do not put us to the test,
but deliver us from the evil one.

With so much care and protection and love from God,
don't we all sing in praise!
For Yours is the kingdom,
and the power,
and the glory,
forever and ever amen!
