First Presbyterian Church Of Baton Rouge

To pray, “Your Kingdom, let it come” is a life changing prayer. It means first that we recognize this world is not all right.This right now is not the kingdom. I see suffering. I see brokenness. I see lostness and need and chaos and madness and violence. And it is not all right. It is not the way it should be. So I pray for the Kingdom to come. God bring your rule of peace and forgiveness and love and grace to this broken place. And suddenly I realize this prayer is involving my life. He sends me to the suffering ones, to receive them in his love as if I am receiving the King himself. Isaiah 65: 17-25
