Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in 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. for ever. Amen.
Matthew 6:5-13
God's will is not now being done in earth. Christ wants it done. He asks us to pray that it may be done.
God's will is contained in the Ten Commandments. 'Thou shalt, 'Thou shalt not,' the commandments read. If any want to know God's will that he may do it, he should begin with the Ten Commandments. There is food there, and study, for the soul. We shall never come to the point where we may with safety disregard God's will. Rather, we are to pray that it may be done in earth as in heaven. This must first of all mean in our own hearts."
