Thy will be done!

“For most of us the prayer in Gethsemane is the only model. Removing mountains can wait.”

― C.S. Lewis, Letters to Malcolm: Chiefly on Prayer

"Not my will but your will be done." (Lk 22: 42). We all have burdens. We are all struggling to be authentic, genuine and true to our conscience and our Christian identity. And we are all in desperate need of God's grace. There is a reason why the prayer Jesus himself taught us ("Our Father") has "Thy will be done" as a top petition!
