Prayers and Poems for Lent

I wrote this prayer in response to a webinar I participated in, looking at the Lord’s Prayer through Lenten eyes. As we prayed, studied and discussed the first two lines of the Lord’s Prayer, I found myself stopping and suddenly seeing with new eyes, the dichotomy in this relationship with God. Bigger than words can describe, yet total accessibility with the Lord of the universe. It felt like the most unlikely of friendships and yet... it works because of the Lord’s graciousness and tenderness.
