“Your Kingdom Come”
The kingdom of God is the reign or rule of God. There is a sense in which that kingdom is future but there is also a sense in which it is present; the kingdom will be completed when Jesus returns but it has been right here within us and among us ever since Jesus came.
So…come, Lord Jesus.
But also…thank you for having come, Lord Jesus.
So…may your kingdom be completed and perfected one day, O God.
But also…may your kingdom be more completed and perfected in us today and every day, O God.
So…may your kingdom be obvious to everybody some day.
But also…may your kingdom be obvious in us and through us this day.
Amen.
"Your kingdom come." (Matthew 6:10a)
