When we read in scripture the immediacy with which things seem to happen we want you now. You are the same Lord who called to Jacob, Joseph, and Mary. You are our Lord as well. Your word is near to us, on our lips and in our hearts as we worship you this day. We pray as Jesus taught us to pray for your kingdom saying, 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 debts as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: for Thine is the Kingdom and the power, and the glory forever. Amen.
