reflections on the Lord's Prayer

I got this in e-mail last night from my cousin in Atlanta, who's a Catholic -- married to one, anyway. She in turn got this from her prayer group, she said. quote:
The Lord's Prayer....
I cannot say "Our" if I live only for myself. I cannot say "Father" if I do not endeavor each day to act like His child. I cannot say "Who Art In Heaven" if I am storing up no treasure there. I cannot say "Hallowed Be Thy Name" if I am not striving for holiness. I cannot say "Thy Kingdom Come" if I am not doing all in my power to hasten that wonderful event. I cannot say "Thy Will Be Done" if I am disobedient to His word. I cannot say "In Earth As It Is In Heaven" if I'll not serve Him here and now. I cannot say "Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread" if I am dishonest or seeking things by subterfuge. I cannot say "Forgive Us Our Debts" if I harbor a grudge against anyone. I cannot say "Lead Us Not Into Temptation" if I deliberately place myself in its path. I cannot say "Deliver Us From Evil" if I do not use the graces and common sense I have been given. I cannot say "Thine Is The Kingdom" if I don't give the King the loyalty due from a faithful subject. I cannot attribute to Him "The Power" if I fear what men may do. I cannot ascribe to Him "The Glory" if I am seeking honor only for myself, and I cannot say "Forever" if the horizon of my life is bounded completely by time.
Amen.

That fits interestingly into another topic I have going in one of the other public forums of MSDAOL.
