Did You Ever Wonder if Mankind has Tried to Rewrite the Lord's Prayer?
Benjamin Franklin did - in 1768 - in an effort to make it more clear.
Here's what he wrote;
"Heavenly Father, may we all revere thee,
and become thy dutiful Children and faithful subjects;
May thy Laws be obeyed on Earth as
perfectly as they are in Heaven;
Provide for us this Day as thou
hast hitherto daily done;
Forgive us our Trespasses, and enable
us likewise to forgive those who offend us.
Keep us from Temptation and deliver us from Evil."
Dear Friends,
Today is a special day for us because for the first time in 2 years
we have internet in our home! The installers of our new satellite
internet system just left.
Which means...No more running to internet cafes and praying no one tries to steal my laptop... no more time wasted going from one place to the other trying to find a cafe with a functioning system... no more worries about doing online banking because people are looking over my shoulder... no more stress trying to cram all my online needs into one day!
Overall, this just made our lives and job a whole lot easier.
I want to say THANK YOU to the person who gave the generous donation that made this possible (you know who you are) and to all you TECHNO GEEKS out there who spend so much time and energy improving technology so that workers like me can sit in a rural village in
GOD BLESS YOU!!!!
As a side note.... the people we work with in the village have no
idea what the internet is... imagine trying to explain "THE INTERNET" to someone who has never even seen a computer!! ... That should be an encouragement to those of you who feel "computer-challenged".
Feel free to send us as many e-mails as you like and call our new
online number (727) 565-1526 to chat or leave a message.
Our SKYPE username is kimandmike1.
In His service,
Kim, Mike, and Liliana Miller
