So, last night our small group topic was prayer. Not surprisingly, we used Matthew 6 as our text:
9"This, then, is how you should pray:
" ‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10your kingdom come,
your will be done
on earth as it is in heaven.
11Give us today our daily bread.
12Forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’
Then someone piped-up on “your will be done,” saying: “Well, I kinda expect God to answer and I get frustrated when He doesn’t.”
Our leader’s reply: “I do the same thing. I think we both need the Prayer Drive-Thru: Drop off your prayer at the first window, get your answer at the second.”
Fun times.
