Kirk Reflections 27th July 2025.

Revd. Erick du Toit brings this week's reflection from Kirkliston Parish Church, Scotland.

THE LORD'S PRAYER

“‘Father,

hallowed be your name,

your kingdom come.

Give us each day our daily bread.

Forgive us our sins,

- for we also forgive everyone who sins against us.

And lead us not into temptation.’”

(Luke 11: 2-4)

We pray it often. Some of us can recite it in our sleep!
But why is the Lord’s Prayer so powerful?
And how come so many people know it?
Have you ever spent a bit of time to really think about what you’re saying when you utter these words…?
