And Your Love.

Our Father, Who Art In Heaven,
Hallowed Be Thy Name

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Those of you who follow this Thread will have noticed, I am sure, that I talk about my Dad a lot. He was a wonderful man, raised as a middle child in a huge family of Gloucester Fisherman (The Old-Fashioned kind, on wooden sailing schooners) and actually went to sea at the age of NINE. At seventeen, he enlisted in the US Navy, and served both in WW2 and The Korean War. He was an official Navy Photographer (as well as a Landing Craft Driver) and was present during some of the bloodiest Battles in The South Pacific. I grew up looking at his photos of The Battle of Okinawa, Iwo Jima, and several other famous ones. And when I was nine, I took my place beside my Dad as his darkroom assistant.

As well as being a Warrior, a Sailor, an Artist, and Music-Lover, Dad was also a Man of Deep Faith.

There has been a James Clavell Story circulating on line that was first available in the Readers' Digest in 1968. I remember reading it back then, and remembering the story I will share with you today:

I could not have been more than 5 or 6, when Daddy was teaching me how to say my prayers. We knelt down on the floor together, next to my little bed and Dad started teaching me The Lord's Prayer. Right away, I wanted to know what it meant. It started out "Our Father". Was I talking to my Dad? Then Dad patiently went through every word and phrase of the Lord's Prayer, and not only explained what the words MEANT, but the concepts behind them. (At the time, I thought that "Trespassing" meant going into someone's yard without permission! Dad explained that even thinking mean thoughts about another person was "Trespassing!")

Most of all, Dad taught me the concept of today's Hebrew name for God "Avinu Malkenu". God is Our Father, but He is also The King.

The James Clavell Story is not about Prayer, but about Patriotism and The Love of Our Nation. It tells of a class that said "The Pledge of Allegiance" every day but did not understand the meaning behind the words. My Dad must have understood that "Religion by Rote" was not going to save his daughter, but an understanding of what we believe, and a personal, deep relationship with our Father in Heaven, would.

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

God Bless America!

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR
THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM!
And for the Preservation of the Valiant
Israeli Nation!

WILL mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to the multitude of his lovingkindnesses. 8 For he said, Surely they are my people, children that will not lie: so he was their Saviour.

9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

10 But they rebelled, and vexed his holy Spirit: therefore he was turned to be their enemy, and he fought against them.

11 Then he remembered the days of old, Moses, and his people, saying, Where is he that brought them up out of the sea with the shepherd of his flock? where is he that put his holy Spirit within him?

12 That led them by the right hand of Moses with his glorious arm, dividing the water before them, to make himself an everlasting name?

13 That led them through the deep, as an horse in the wilderness, that they should not stumble?

14 As a beast goeth down into the valley, the Spirit of the LORD caused him to rest: so didst thou lead thy people, to make thyself a glorious name.

15 Look down from heaven, and behold from the habitation of thy holiness and of thy glory: where is thy zeal and thy strength, the sounding of thy bowels and of thy mercies toward me? are they restrained?

16 Doubtless thou art our father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: thou, O LORD, art our father, our redeemer; thy name is from everlasting.

17 O LORD, why hast thou made us to err from thy ways, and hardened our heart from thy fear? Return for thy servants' sake, the tribes of thine inheritance.

18 The people of thy holiness have possessed it but a little while: our adversaries have trodden down thy sanctuary.

19 We are thine: thou never barest rule over them; they were not called by thy name.

Thank you for sharing this tender and intimate story of faith, hope and love that lives inside you from both the FATHER above, and the blessed gift of your earthly father. Indeed, you are telling of the kindnesses of the LORD, the deeds for which He is to be praised, His compassions and His Glorious renown as Savior, Redeemer, and Father. Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem, for our dear families, for our children who are far from the LORD and have children of their own, may they turn back with full hearts and ready and willing spirits to teach of the GOODNESS of their LORD to our grandchildren.
