Heaven on Earth?

"Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."

Most of us know that verse by heart. It's from the prayer that Jesus taught the disciples to pray (see Matthew 6:9-13).

"Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."

But often times, we do not see the power that is contained within that statement.

If we did, we would not accept the ills that we see in our lives or around us.
The media screams "economic Armageddon" and we accept that. The newscaster declares the "flu season" and we prepare for the season. Likewise, we mindlessly nod our heads to a plethora of things that is alien to our new life in Him and His Kingdom.

"Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven."

Let the scripture sink into our soul...
