I can never tell, when I pray these words, whether the Lord wants me to emphasize thy will (as opposed to my will) or be done (as opposed to just talked about or considered). Perhaps both. Today, I am thinking of the second. I am asking Him to move me to action, to see His will and do something about it. And not only me but the whole human race. (Here the prayer will move back toward the desire for all to hallow his name, for allto do his will.) I wonder what life on this planet would be if we prayed this prayer and He answered with a fresh wave of energy for obedience. Jesus said “my food is to do His will and finish His work” (John 4). Heavenly Father, make me like your son!
