About the Lord’s Prayer
by fellow blogger Brian Jewell
Our Father living in heaven Holy is Your name
Your Son was mocked, beaten, crucified but from the cross He proclaimed
“It’s finished. It’s done.” I took the pain and wrath so you could live without shame
Now centuries later not much had changed. If Jesus walked the earth today His message would be the same
Living on this sphere is hard, we ask You to bring heaven here
No hurting, no sorrow, no tears, no sickness, no death on the day You appear
You conquered it all already so we have nothing to fear
Even though we get laughed at and jeered, some people can’t say Your name without a sneer
We ask You to provide our daily bread
Not just for our bellies because our souls get hungry too and need to be fed
Some people only talk to you when they’re in trouble but a relationship is what You want instead
Remind me all the time that for me You bled
Forgive us for the sin we commit
We owed You so much, up to our necks in debt
Everyday we stumble and hit face first to the dirt our heads heavy with regret
But You paid the price so we could get up again, let us never forget
Please keep my feet on the narrow way
It’s so easy to follow the crowd and stray
Day after day of trials and temptations cause the end of the rope to fray
But because You’re my life and breath I know You’ll help me when I sway
All of creation belongs to You
The universe itself screams the truth
Doubters and seeks are looking through the telescope lens to study the sky roof
They need to repent because You keep us fireproof

Put Your Foot Down
There’s a time to sit.
There’s a time to stand.
Then, there’s a time to walk.
To take new ground you have to — put your foot down.
There’s a time to retreat.
There’s a time to reflect.
Then, there’s a time to walk.
To take new ground you have to — put your foot down.
There’s a time to pray.
There’s a time to ponder.
Then, there’s a time to walk.
To take new ground you have to — put your foot down.
Don’t just look around and wonder — walk on!
Don’t just sit around and mumble — walk on!
Don’t just wish and crave and long for a better day — walk on!
To take new ground you have to — put your foot down.

Father Knows Best
Hey, Doug Dial here with 1 minute of hope.
The invitation from God came from the lips of Jeremiah the prophet, “Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.” Jeremiah 33:3
🎵 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised.
🎵 So shall I be saved from my enemies …
Fear, doubt, worry, stress, anxiety …
🎵 The Lord liveth, and blessed be the Rock,
🎵 And may the God of my salvation be exalted!
🎵 The Lord liveth, and blessed be the Rock,
🎵 And may the God of my salvation be exalted!
In the midst of my distress,
I find peace and rest.
Yes, I’ll call upon the Lord,
for Father knows best.

Finding Your Way
Path blocked.
Gate locked.
Windows closed.
I’m hosed.
Doors shut.
What’s up?
Can’t get in.
Foiled again
… God will make a way …
… where there seems to be no way …

Thy Will Be Done
It might seem like a four-word prayer wouldn’t have much significance or impact but:
… when prayed with a sincere heart …
… when spoken from sincere lips …
… when we truly lay it all down …
… when He is Lord of our everything …
… when, like Jesus, with every breath we want to please the Father …
♫ Jesus, be the Lord of all, the kingdoms of my heart!
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
Matthew 6:10
Thy will be done.

The Way Maker
Hey, Doug Dial here with one minute of hope.
Sometimes … we find ourselves in a quagmire and we just can’t seem to find our way.
Unemployment.
A relationship issue.
Physical challenges.
The way is unclear, and the challenge seems daunting as to how to find our way.
THAT reminds me of an old chorus:
♫ God will make a way where there seems to be no way.
He works in ways we cannot see, He is watching over me.
He will be my guide, lead me gently by His side.
With love and strength for each new day, God will make a way.
Dear one, your situation is NOT too difficult for God.
Pray. Trust. Believe. Call upon the Lord.
God will make a way for He is the Way Maker.
