"Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors."
And Love is reflected in love.
Need love? Turn it around! Give Love!
Need friends? Turn it around! Be one! Need to feel appreciated? Appreciate those around you! Need joy? Be grateful!
God's kingdom - His presence, His authority, His love - is already right here where you are. Where? in your heart. In your consciousness.
You intuitively already know this.
Jesus said, "Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you."
So let it out! Let God's Kingdom of Love shine! Let your face be the face of Love-at-work in the world. This is your divine right. This is your natural state of being. No. It's more than that: it is your God-given purpose.
"Forgive us our debts [our lack of Love] as we forgive our debtors [forgive those we think are lacking love for us or for anyone]."
And Love, God, is always reflected in love.

I love way you interpret the passage below, Mark. It would be so easy to be compassionate toward others if we just saw their seeming attack as a call for love.
"Forgive us our debts [our lack of Love] as we forgive our debtors [forgive those we think are lacking love for us or for anyone]."
Thank you!
Aileen, thank you so much for your insightful note. I'm beginning to learn how easy it is to assume "our" view is the only one that's right all the time! Love is always present, even while our view (projection) is all we suffer through.
