on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our debts, as we forgive those who are in debt to us.
Do not bring us to the test, but deliver us from the evil one. If you forgive others their wrongdoings, your Father in heaven will also forgive yours.
If you do not forgive others, then your Father will not forgive you.
Reflection:
In front of God, we need not speak too much in order to be understood.
He knows us through and through. For sometimes, words get in the way. They
could be misunderstood. The most refined form of communication is the
communication of beings. It is heart speaking to another heart. There is no
possibility of confusion or misunderstanding because it does not use imperfect
vehicles like words to convey what one thinks and feels. Hearts could lie
through words, but heart speaking to another heart could not. That is why Jesus
teaches us to pray from the heart. In that way, we can ask the Father in all
sincerity that which we truly need.
