Praying, Giving and Receiving - a special series for Lent on Matthew's Gospel, written by Peter Graystone
Matthew 6:12-15, 19-23
Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
If you forgive others when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins.
Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal.
[Jesus said,] 'Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.'
The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness!
Lord God, you have given me your greatest treasure. What would it please you to receive from me? Amen
