Praying, Giving and Receiving - a special series for Lent on Matthew's Gospel, written by Peter Graystone
Matthew 6:3-6, 9-11
When you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full.
When you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
This, then, is how you should pray: 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.'
Your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread.
Lord God, who is the perfect parent of us all, teach me to love as you love. Amen
