Pastor Paula continues her sermon series on the Lord's Prayer with the phrase "Hallowed Be Thy Name." The prayer opens with a focus on the intimacy of a relationship with a God who invites us to call on God as "Abba" or "Daddy." However, it immediately also reminds us of the fact that our God is also holy. By reflecting on the "otherness" of God, we can understand that our God, who created the world, is not ours to control, but one who has power and might and yet desires to be in relationship with us. By reflecting on this and what it means to be able to call upon that God, we can learn how to keep God's name Holy.

UNTITLED POEM BY DAG HAMMARSKJOLD
Have mercy
Upon us.
Have mercy
Upon our efforts,
That we
Before Thee,
In love and in faith,
Righteousness and humility,
May follow Thee,
With self-denial, steadfastness and courage,
And meet Thee
In the silence.
Give us
A pure heart
That we may see Thee,
A humble heart
That we may hear Thee,
A heart of love
That we may serve Thee,
A heart of faith
That we may live Thee,
Thou
Whom I do not know
But Whose I am.
Thou
Whom I od not comprehend
But Who has dedicated me
To my destiny
Thou –
