But alongside our life in the world goes our life in the Kingdom of God; and there in particular the prayer, “Thy will be done” is a prayer that God will use us to advance his Kingdom, his Sovereign Rule, in our own generation.  And that means doing our part in bearing true witness to the Gospel, the Faith, and the Church as they have come down to us through the Apostles from Our Lord himself.

So we move into the future, relying on the Lord’s guidance and support as we pray to him in the words of Psalm 5: Lead us, Lord, in thy righteousness: make thy way plain before our face.
